Read the full description
Stop passing one phone back and forth. With xy, each person chats on their own phone, in their own language, just like any messenger. You type or speak in yours; it shows up on their phone in theirs. The other person doesn't even need the app: show a QR code, they scan it, and the chat starts. No sign-up. Text and voice in 231 languages, with the whole conversation as context (OpenAI GPT, Google Translate as instant backup). iPhone, Android and PC.
