Provider
Low Key Translate is provided by Low Key Labs LLC.
Service Summary
Low Key Translate helps people use their own iPhone or iPad for live translated one-to-one and group conversations. The app supports Connect Nearby for local peer-to-peer conversations and Connect Worldwide for internet relay rooms. Speech recognition, translation, and speech playback are performed on device when supported by the selected languages, installed language assets, device, and operating system.
Not a Certified Interpreter
Low Key Translate is not a certified interpreter, legal interpreter, medical interpreter, emergency service, or professional advice service. Do not rely on the app as the only communication method for emergencies, legal, medical, immigration, safety-critical, financial, or other high-stakes situations. Translation, transcription, and speech playback may be inaccurate, delayed, unavailable, or incomplete.
User Responsibilities
Users are responsible for choosing appropriate languages and voice settings, verifying important information outside the app, getting consent before recording, transcribing, translating, replaying, or saving conversation content where required by law, keeping Connect Worldwide room codes private, and using profile names and profile photos they have the right to use.
Do not use the app to harass, threaten, impersonate, commit fraud, violate privacy rights, bypass legal obligations, share sexual or exploitative content, share hateful or violent content, target minors, or interfere with the relay service.
User Safety Controls
Room participants can hide a profile photo locally, report a person/photo to Low Key Labs LLC, block a participant, and unblock a participant if blocked by mistake. Safety reports are sent privately to Low Key Labs LLC for review and are not shown to other participants.
Low Key Translate is not intended for children under 13, and should not be used by minors unless permitted by applicable law and with any required parent or guardian consent.
Connect Nearby
Connect Nearby uses local peer-to-peer networking between devices. Conversation content is exchanged directly between participating devices. Low Key Labs LLC does not receive Connect Nearby conversation content through a relay server.
Connect Worldwide
Connect Worldwide uses a Low Key Labs LLC relay server to connect participants over the internet. The relay is designed to forward encrypted app messages between participants and is not designed to decrypt conversation payloads. The relay may process room codes, device identifiers, IP addresses, connection timestamps, short-lived public key-exchange frames, message size/count metadata, and operational counters needed to run and protect the service. The app may display basic connection details, including relay-observed IP address, to other participants in the same room for safety and verification.
Profile Photos
Profile photos are optional and may be disabled by Low Key Labs LLC. If enabled, the app stores only a small approved square version on your device and may share it with current room participants as session metadata. Do not use images that are explicit, abusive, exploitative, infringing, or otherwise unsafe. Automated screening can be imperfect, and users can still report or block unsafe profile photos.
