The Banana App
Preserving the speaker's actual voice, tone, and emotion during real-time translation is the crucial detail that separates this from robotic translation — a call where you hear a synthetic voice immediately feels impersonal no matter how accurate the words are. The pay-per-minute model with no subscription is perfect for travelers who need it sporadically. How noticeable is the latency during a live conversation when translating between structurally different language pairs like English and Japanese?
The pay per minute model is really smart, way better than yet another subscription for something you might only use when traveling. Preserving the actual voice tone is what makes this feel like a real conversation instead of talking through a robot. Curious, does it work well in noisy environments like airports or crowded streets?
Looks Promising and a cool idea, what are some of use cases that you saw in beta version, that was unexpected ? Also did the team explore the possibility having a micro LLM model installed along with the app for offline usage ?

When the website greets you in your mother tongue, it is a totally different and convenient experience. Nice idea, Sam! :)
