Connected communication
Chat, translation, spoken conversation, learning, and profile choices share one clear product language.
2025Mobile product design and development
Anylingo: Mobile App
A multilingual communication app that keeps translation, voice, learning, and social context inside the conversation.
Core Infinite / ProjectMobile + UI/UX
A messaging app that helps people write, translate, listen, and talk across languages without leaving the conversation.
What we made, why it mattered, and how it came together.
AnyLingo helps two people keep talking when they prefer different languages. Original messages, translations, replies, and audio stay together, so the conversation still feels like a conversation.
The product goes beyond chat. People can translate text, recordings, files, media, and camera input, speak turn by turn or in a live session, choose a voice, join groups, and explore learning through books, teachers, video, live practice, and comics.
Our work was to make those different experiences feel connected. The same language choices, familiar controls, and clear ways to continue follow the user from one part of the app to the next.
Spoken exchange
People can take deliberate recorded turns or move into a continuous live conversation.
Flexible translation
Text, voice, files, media, and camera captures can enter the same translation workspace.
Creative learning
Long comic lessons save progress so completed work can be picked up again.
Keep a powerful product feeling like one simple conversation
Translation becomes tiring when people must copy content between separate chat, transcription, translation, and playback tools. AnyLingo needed to keep the source, meaning, reply, audio, sender, and context in one place.
The app also coordinates permissions, recording, translation, live audio, uploads, notifications, purchases, and saved work. Those moving parts had to feel calm and predictable on screen.
What we had to balance
Powerful tools versus a familiar chat experience
Quick feedback versus network and media delays
Helpful defaults versus clear user control
Expressive voice features versus consent and privacy
Rich media versus battery, data, and accessibility
Our approach
Design the whole exchange, then give each mode the room it needs
Every path starts with the same simple arc: share something, understand it, and respond. Chat protects continuity, Lingo accepts different inputs, Convo supports spoken turns, live mode supports an ongoing session, and Learn turns personal interests into practice.
Language pairs, voice choices, playback preferences, and saved content carry across the app. Longer tasks show progress and save useful work instead of hiding everything behind a spinner.
- Keep the original and translation together.
- Use a familiar language-pair model across every input type.
- Let people choose when audio plays and which voice it uses.
- Save important choices before long work begins.
- Make camera, microphone, video, and audio stop cleanly when the user leaves.
Friends and communities
People who want translated messages, replies, reactions, and media to stay inside a familiar chat.
Travelers and families
People who need quick help understanding text or speech in practical and personal moments.
Global collaborators
Teams that want to work across preferred languages without turning every message into a separate task.
Learners and teachers
People who use books, teachers, videos, live practice, or generated stories to make learning more personal.
The experience, step by step.
Choose the languages
Onboarding and saved preferences set the incoming and outgoing languages, theme, and playback choices.
Receive and understand
The original message stays visible while its translation appears in the same conversation.
Reply naturally
The response is translated for the other person while formatting, direction, and context stay intact.
Use any useful input
Lingo accepts text, recordings, files, media, and camera captures, then offers translation and optional audio.
Speak turn by turn or live
Recorded turns create a readable history, while live mode keeps an active spoken session moving.
Learn from personal interests
Books, teachers, videos, live practice, and comic lessons offer different ways to build confidence.
Return without starting over
Saved conversations, preferences, media, and lesson progress help people continue where they left off.

Key decisions
What we chose and why.
Keep Lingo at the center
DecisionMake the broad translation workspace the central destination in the main navigation.
ReasonIt gives people the quickest route to text, audio, files, media, and camera translation, with chat and conversation close by.
Keep the original visible
DecisionShow the original content beside its translation.
ReasonNames, tone, punctuation, and context are easier to check when the original is still present.
Separate spoken modes
DecisionGive recorded turns and live conversation their own experiences.
ReasonOne supports review and saved history, while the other keeps a live exchange moving.
Save before long work
DecisionStore comic choices and progress as the lesson is created.
ReasonA closed screen or lost connection should not erase work that has already finished.
How the details support the experience.
Product layout
A stable home for every kind of task
Chats, Learn, Lingo, Convo, and Profile create a clear map for a broad product. The central action stays easy to reach, and deeper features do not crowd the main navigation.
- Visible labels beside familiar icons
- Selection shown through color, shape, and text
- The same structure in light and dark themes
- Room for focused feature screens beyond the main tabs
Multilingual detail
Language is writing, direction, sound, and context
The app carries original writing, translations, language names, pronunciation, audio, and right-to-left scripts. The language pair stays visible so people always know what they are reading and creating.
- Clear source and target languages
- Support for right-to-left content
- Audio controls close to the words they belong to
- A clear difference between app language and translated content
Generated lessons
Art direction that stays consistent from page to page
Comic styles define a visual mood, palette, character rules, and continuity notes before generation begins. That preparation helps a lesson feel like one story instead of a collection of unrelated images.
- Distinct visual styles
- Consistent faces, clothing, and props
- A clear opening image and story sequence
- No unwanted text, logos, or extra characters
How the product works behind the scenes.
Shared foundation
One product for Android and iOS
A shared mobile foundation keeps navigation, language preferences, themes, accounts, and feature behavior aligned on both platforms.
- Shared navigation and account behavior
- Connected accounts, saved content, media, and notifications
- Saved preferences
- Consistent light and dark themes
Live audio
People can see whether a live conversation is connected
Live translation coordinates the microphone, the active connection, audio events, and translated transcripts. The screen reflects what is happening instead of treating the call as a hidden process.
- Microphone permission and clean background handling
- Visible connection and reconnection feedback
- Incoming transcript updates
- Clean stop and disposal when the session ends
Long tasks
Completed work survives an interruption
Comic generation writes progress as it goes, validates saved images, and reuses completed pages when a session resumes.
- Saved progress
- Validated local image files
- Saved page-by-page results
- Clear cancel, pause, retry, and finish messages
The details that keep the experience dependable.
Accessibility
Important controls explain themselves
Navigation, message actions, audio controls, and learning selectors use clear labels and make the active choice easy to see. Meaning is not left to color or icon shape alone.
- Named navigation and section controls
- A clear active choice
- Readable labels beside important icons
- Reduced-motion and text-scale considerations
Consent
Personal voice features need clear choices
Voice cloning and generated audio can feel personal. The product should explain whose voice is being used, what the action will create, and how a person can change or remove that choice.
- Explicit voice selection
- Clear playback controls
- Age, consent, privacy, and retention guidance
- Neutral recovery when generated content is blocked
Reliability
Failure keeps the user's context
Saved preferences, media that stops cleanly, cached images, and resumable lessons reduce the cost of a closed screen or unreliable connection.
- Saved language and playback choices
- Media stops cleanly in the background
- Completed lesson pages are reused
- Errors lead to a useful next step
How the identity looks, sounds, and moves.
Brand principle
Help people understand one another. Every brand choice should put the conversation before the technology.
AnyLingo brings translation into the flow of a real conversation. Its expressive parrot, warm colors, speech-inspired shapes, and multilingual rhythm make the product feel curious, friendly, and open to the world.
Brand artwork
The primary mark is the circular parrot head, with its large eye, green feathers, golden beak, and coral accent. Use the supplied full, simple, and circular versions as they are. Give the mark room to breathe, keep it clear of busy imagery, and never crop through the eye or beak.

Read it. Reply naturally. Keep talking.
Voice
- Warm, clear, and focused on people.
- Use direct verbs such as chat, translate, reply, listen, learn, and share.
- Be curious about languages and cultures without turning them into decoration.
- Explain voice, subscriptions, limits, and recovery in plain language.
- Let character moments feel playful, but keep important product copy calm and respectful.
Imagery
- Show specific human moments such as travel, friendship, family, work, and arrival.
- Pair atmosphere with a real or privacy-safe product view so each image has a clear purpose.
- Keep skin tones natural and use green through framing and product details.
- Use fictional conversations when a real capture contains personal information.
- Preserve the official parrot and approved characters instead of replacing them with generic language symbols.
Applications
- Use the circular or simplified parrot for app icons and compact profile spaces.
- Use Product Green for selection in the app, supported by labels and shape rather than color alone.
- Combine Warm Paper, Forest Ink, Manrope, Instrument Serif, and message-led layouts on the website.
- Use feather cuts, speech bubbles, beak ribbons, and rounded panels as supporting shapes.
- Keep official store badges intact and at their intended proportions.
Avoid
- Do not redraw, stretch, rotate, or recolor the parrot.
- Do not place white body copy on bright green when dark ink is clearer.
- Do not mix unrelated logo, gradient, icon, or illustration styles.
- Do not use fake scripts or reverse right-to-left text.
- Do not publish real names, faces, or phone numbers without permission.
- Do not let video, sound, or animation carry information that is missing from the page copy.
Motion
Motion should show a message moving, preserve continuity, or confirm an action. Keep product transitions short, pause video outside the viewport, respect reduced-motion and reduced-data settings, and make sure the full story still works as a static page.
A closer look at the work.
Screens and design details from the project, with a short note about each view.
The main navigation keeps chat, learning, translation, conversation, and profile close at hand.
Original and translated messages stay together so people can understand and reply without losing context.
Books, teachers, live practice, video, and personal comic lessons offer different ways to keep learning.
