SideNote Open App

Chat + Translation

Just chat normally. SideNote makes the language understandable.

When friends share a common language, translations help you learn your target language. When they do not, translations help you understand first and communicate anyway.

Two ways to use SideNote.

With a shared language

Use the shared language to understand the message, then learn from the target-language translation beside it.

Without a shared language

Use your native-language translation to understand meaning, then send your own message with a target-language translation.

Review tools

Search, listen, copy, and check pronunciation from each sentence.

Chat stays normal.

The learning layer sits beside each message, so friends do not need to become teachers.
