Using Wordly Translator App for IOS
Getting Started
Download the App
Download the Wordly Translator app in the Apple Store
Open the App
When you first open the app, you will be asked to approve the terms of service. From there, you will be taken to the dashboard where you can join a session or sign into your Wordly account.
Click Sign In, which will bring you to the Welcome page.
Press Sign In with Wordly. If you use your company SSO with Wordly, you should pick your SSO provider. This is the same process as the first time you logged into the portal using your company SSO.
Using the App
Sign In or Join a Session
Whether you have an account of not, you can use the front page of the app to join a Wordly session as either attendee or presenter!
On the front page you can add a Session ID and then the “Join” button will be enabled. Clicking it will connect you to the session as an Attendee. Enter a passcode before clicking “Join” will connect you to the session as a presenter, allowing your speech to be added to the session’s transcript.
Click “Manage” after entering the passcode to change the Presenter’s language and name for the session before starting it.
If you join a session, skip to Attending a Session for more guidance.
Also on the front page is the Sign In option. Click this to sign in to your Wordly account.
After signing in, you will have access to your Wordly Account and see your upcoming/current sessions.
Attending a Session
To attend a session, either enter the Session ID (and passcode if required), or select your session and click the green “start” button at the bottom of the screen.
In the session screen, you will see the live translation. At the top and bottom of the screen will be different settings:
- Language selection
- Microphone
- Leave or End Session
- Mute/Unmute button
- View participants
Language Selection
When you click the language listed in the top left of the session, a dropdown menu will appear, allowing you to pick any of Wordly’s supported languages.
For each language you select, quick access buttons will appear at the top of the translation.
Ending a Session
To leave or end a session, click the “END” button at the bottom left. This will bring up a window asking if you would like to leave the session.
- Hit “CANCEL” to return to the session.
- Hit “LEAVE” to exit the session.
- Hit “END” to end the session.
Creating a Session
If you would like to use the app to create a session, click the blue “Add Session” button at the bottom of the screen. This will bring up the Session Setup window.
Here, you can name your session; name the presenter; schedule the date and start time; select duration, language, glossary (if any); choose your transcript preferences; and decide the access level for your new session.
When you are done, hit “Save” at the bottom of the screen, and the session will appear on your list of sessions. You can edit the session after creating it. This session will also be available in the web portal.
Hitting “Back” will return you to the app’s homescreen.
