Q: QuestionHOW DO I GET THE UNIT TO CONNECT TO THE INTERNET WHEN I AM OUT AND ABOUT? I USED RADIO DIAL EMBEDDED GLOBAL SIM APN POCKETTALK SIM. DO I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ELSE TO MAKE IT WORK? IT WILL NOT WORK OUTSIDE OF MY WIFI. IT SAYS NO INTERNET CONNECTION

Asked 5 years ago by BRENDA.

• A:Answer It did the same thing to me, I would go in and out but for the most part it worked. You can also Wi-Fi off your phone. Personally I purchase a pocketalk because I could buy a Sim card and use it anywhere without having to be connected to Wi-Fi somewhere. But I have a lot of problems with my pocket talk.

Q: QuestionI am looking for a translation device that my husband can use during church service translated from English to Spanish, would this work for that situation?

Asked 5 years ago by Question.

• A:Answer Currently, our Pocketalk is designed to translate conversations in a conversational setting, not in a church service. With this in mind, we can’t guarantee it to work for this purpose as Pocketalk can handle up to 30 seconds of speaking per translation and its microphone may not be able to pick up the audio in that setting.
