Voxis app tour: every panel, step by step

A guided tour of the Voxis app: scenario, audio source, languages, translation stream, on-screen text, Meeting panel, settings, history and shortcuts. This is the text version of the interactive tour: every chapter’s headline, text and notes.

One window. One control, one sentence.

App tour

Controls in the left rail, the translation stream in the middle, and a strip on top that tells you what the session is doing. The rule is simple: one control, one sentence. Anything more sits behind the ⓘ.

  • The app's own look: a dark ground and one warm accent.
  • Every section's ⓘ says what it does, what most people pick, and the ⚠ to watch.
Basis
The app's interface reference.
Limit
Most settings apply instantly; the few that need Save say so beside them.

One way, or two?

Scenario

Video & Game translates everything the computer plays, one way. Meeting is two-way — you and the other party — and needs headphones and a virtual microphone. Without one, the session will not start.

  • When the free taste runs out, Meeting shows a lock icon.
  • Meeting ignores the Source choice.
Basis
The app's scenario tiles and their caveat.
Limit
Meeting is in the one-time 15 Pro minutes, not in the daily free minutes.

System audio. Or an input device.

Source

The Source is a single line on the left rail: Listening to, with a Change link beside it. System audio takes in everything playing on the computer and leaves Voxis's own voice out. Input device translates the microphone, mixer or line-in you pick. For most people: System audio.

  • Windows “Listen to this device” is invisible to System audio; use Input device instead.
  • An interface in ASIO mode is not listed.
Basis
The app's ⓘ text.
Limit
No ducking and no echo suppression on the Input device path.

What you hear. What they hear.

Languages

Pick the language you want to hear. You never pick the spoken one; it's detected on its own. In Meeting, the second picker sets the language the other side hears you in, and ⇄ swaps the two and restarts the session. On the free plan all 79 languages are translated, but not all are spoken.

  • No source-language picker, on purpose.
  • Voice gender and dubbing exist only in some languages (Settings › Translation › Voice).
Basis
The app's ⓘ text.
Limit
Changing a language mid-session restarts the session.

Source on top. Your translation below.

Translation stream

Captions arrive word by word: a grey source line on top, the translation bubble with an amber caret below. When a second voice joins, S1/S2 labels appear; in Meeting, “Them” and “Me”. Skip jumps past the current sentence. The Speed menu beside it holds Fast mode, which shows captions without waiting for the voice and speeds a lagging voice up to 1.5× without changing pitch, and Keep up with the speaker.

  • The source line attaches when the turn ends; until then the live SOURCE line above stands in.
  • S1/S2 run on your device; the spoken translation keeps one voice.
  • Skip only cuts the incoming direction.
Basis
The app's stream behaviour and its Fast mode tip.
Limit
Labels appear only once two voices are heard; music and overlap degrade them.

Original at 30%. Headphones on.

Original audio · Audio

In the Sound & screen card on the left rail, the Original audio (while speaking) slider sets how far the original drops while a sentence is translated; the default is 30%. Audio sets which device the translated voice plays on, and how loud; Sound check tells you whether Voxis can hear anything before you start. For most people: headphones as the output, volume at 100%.

  • Ducking lowers the whole application, not just its speech.
  • Speakers cause an echo in Meeting.
Basis
The app's ⓘ texts.
Limit
Sound check opens only when no session is running.

Subtitles inside. On-screen text over everything.

Screen

Also in that card, subtitles fill the stream inside the Voxis window. On-screen text is a separate bar that floats over a full-screen video or game and shows the translation only. Four looks, three sizes, top or bottom. For most people: subtitles on, and on-screen text on too while you watch full screen.

  • Pick the look in Settings › General › Appearance; while it is on, changes apply instantly.
  • The source line never appears in the on-screen text.
Basis
The app's ⓘ and its look presets.
Limit
Free tier: the “Powered by Voxis” badge stays on.

Three controls. Meeting only.

Meeting panel

Three controls that only appear in Meeting. Your voice: the real microphone that picks you up; CABLE isn't listed here, and that's normal. Names (Meeting options card): yours and the other person's go through exactly as written, never translated. Listen to my translation (same card): you hear what the other side hears; turn it on only with headphones.

  • The cable is hidden in Voxis's lists; you pick it in the meeting app.
  • One-word replies can be mistranslated; say “Yes, alright”.
Basis
The app's ⓘ texts.
Limit
Listen to my translation on speakers means feedback.

What's the session doing? The bar tells you.

Top bar

The status pill reads Idle, Connecting or Active, and its dot shows the mode: amber for Video, blue for Meeting. Next to it, the meter and dB: if they don't move while sound is clearly playing, the problem is capture, not translation. The quota bar shows your minutes left; on the free tier a chip counts down the Pro taste and switches to the free voice when it ends. On the right: Report a problem, History, Settings.

  • Report: a scrubbed log plus diagnostics; the transcript only if you tick the box.
  • The quota bar is hidden on BYOK.
Basis
The app's top bar and its Report a problem dialog.
Limit
Diagnostics are captured the moment you open the dialog, so send right after the problem.

Seven tabs. Most changes apply instantly.

Settings

General: interface language, theme, on-screen text look, speaker labels. Audio: devices, sound check, audio recording (WAV). Translation: profile, voice, terms. Saving: transcript folder and formats. Then Keyboard shortcuts, Membership and About. For most people: the defaults, and the profile closest to what you watch.

  • The Account and key section appears only for BYOK unlock buyers: it takes your own Google Gemini or Alibaba Qwen API key and recognises the provider from its prefix.
  • Terms go to every target language; at most 200.
  • Audio recording (WAV) is Video & Game only.
  • Click any tab; the automatic tour then waits 12 seconds.
Basis
The app's Settings window and ⓘ texts.
Limit
A profile is not a “quality mode”: it bundles speech-detection sensitivity and ducking.

Search, star, edit, export.

History

Every session is saved to its own folder: when it stops, and every couple of minutes while it runs. Search your history, star a session, edit a line, export bilingual TXT, SRT or VTT. The AI summary is on paid plans and runs only when you ask.

  • Delete removes the whole folder; starred sessions are exempt from cleanup.
  • Only the text and the source line are editable; timings stay put.
Basis
The app's History dialog.
Limit
Subtitle timings are approximate; the summary is never automatic.

Keys that work in the background.

Keyboard shortcuts

No shortcut is set out of the box. Record your own for Video & Game, Meeting, Stop and On-screen text in Settings › Keyboard shortcuts; they then work while Voxis is in the background. The intro tour can be replayed from Settings › General.

  • Click a shortcut box and press the new combination.
Basis
The app's Keyboard shortcuts tab.
Limit
Shortcuts exist only in the Windows app.
