Tool or Template: Apps for Translation and Interpretation
Switchboard has compiled a list of mobile apps to support refugee service providers in navigating challenges of interpretation, translation, and resource-sharing in linguistically and culturally supportive ways. Please note, however, that these apps should be considered for things like short, simple conversations, appointment reminders, straightforward information-sharing, and initial inquiries to get a baseline understanding of what someone needs. They are not intended for sensitive or technical matters like medical, psychological, legal, or other complex needs
