She types in Arabic because that is what her hands know. You read it in English as it arrives, and she reads your reply in Arabic. Nobody waits for a booked interpreter to be free on a Sunday.
Each person writes or speaks in their own language. Every message lands in the other person's language, in the same room, at the same time. When the call ends, you both keep a bilingual transcript of what was said.
Four real situations families use this for. If one of them is your Sunday, you are who this page was written for.
Grandparents in one country, grandchildren in another. Send short voice messages or type, and each generation uses the language they actually think in. The distance stops deciding which relatives get talked to.
Two families, one wedding, no shared language. Open the room on two phones at the table and type. Quiet, patient, and nobody needs their child to translate their own mother's jokes.
A relative in a care home or on a ward, with staff who speak English and family who do not. A room keeps everyone in one conversation, gently, without a relay of retelling.
Cousins across three countries and four languages keep one translated room going. The thread that only ever worked in English now works for everyone, in the language they grew up with.
Arabic, Urdu, Polish, Romanian, Bengali, Somali, Tigrinya, Kurdish, Pashto and more, with right to left languages handled properly.
Speak in short voice messages that arrive translated, or type. Many families settle into voice for the grown-ups and typing for the grandparents.
No account needed for guests and nothing to install. Send the invite link by WhatsApp or text and they are in the room, in their browser, on their phone.

Use LingoVoice for the everyday conversation. The weekly call, the planning, the catching up, the jokes at the wedding table. Bring in a qualified human interpreter for the serious moments. A medical diagnosis, a legal or immigration matter, anything with formal consequences deserves a certified professional, and we will say so every time. The company behind LingoVoice runs a UK translation agency, and that line is not negotiable for us.
Open a translated room, send the invite link to your relative by WhatsApp or text, and everything either of you types or says arrives in the other person's language. No interpreter to book, no app to install, nothing to schedule.
