Getting Started

How do I add the bot to my server? +
Click the "Add to Discord" button on the homepage. You'll be redirected to Discord where you can select which server to add it to. You need "Manage Server" permission.
What permissions does the bot need? +
Send Messages, Read Message History, Embed Links, and Use Slash Commands. These are requested automatically when you add the bot.
Is the bot free? +
Yes! All core features are 100% free forever. We offer optional Premium plans for users who want encryption and auto-delete for privacy. Donations also help cover server costs.

Commands

How do I translate text? +
Use /translate and enter your text. Select the target language from the dropdown. Source language is auto-detected, or you can specify it manually.
What does /watch do? +
/watch @user auto-translates all of that user's messages to your language. Useful for following conversations in multilingual channels. Use /unwatch to stop.
Can I prevent others from watching me? +
Yes. Use /settings privacy prevent to block anyone from watching your messages. Re-enable with /settings privacy allow.
What languages are supported? +
100+ languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic, Hindi, Portuguese, Russian, and many more. Auto-detection works with all of them.

Privacy

Does the bot store my messages? +
Only translation metadata is stored (language pairs, timestamps) for analytics. Message content is processed and discarded. We never sell or share data.
How is translation processed? +
Translations are sent to Google Translate's API. Your text is processed by Google and the result is returned. Google's privacy policy applies to the translation process.

Troubleshooting

Bot isn't responding to commands +
Make sure you're using slash commands (type /). Check that the bot has permissions in the channel. Try kicking and re-adding the bot if issues persist.
Translation quality is poor +
Quality depends on Google Translate. Use clear sentences without heavy slang. Some language pairs translate better than others. Report persistent issues on GitHub.
How do I report bugs or request features? +
Join our Discord server and share your feedback in the support channel. Include as much detail as possible about the bug or your feature idea.
