  • Switch between Emotion sounds (meows your cat recognises) and Communication phrases
  • Plays straight from your phone — no extra hardware

Fun for you and your cat, built right in.

Four mini-games designed around real cat behaviour — capture moods, translate meows into stories, paint with paws, and tick off cat challenges together.

  • Cat Mood Analyzer — snap a photo, get a mood with a confidence score
  • Cat Translator — record a meow and get a descriptive, playful story
  • Paw Painter — your cat chases bugs and leaves paw-print art behind
  • Whisker Quest — guided cat challenges like Slow Blink and Toy Pounce

A game your cat plays — and paints — themselves.

Set the phone down and let your cat take over. Ladybugs crawl across the screen, and every tap or swipe leaves a burst of colourful paw stamps behind. The result: a piece of cat-made art.

  • Ladybugs scuttle across the screen to grab your cat's attention
  • Each tap and drag paints a colourful paw print
  • Save the finished canvas to your Photos with one tap

FAQ

Common questions.

Your cat's meows, purrs, and chirps are classified on your device using Apple's Sound Analysis framework. The app then turns that classification into a playful, descriptive translation — so you get a human-readable interpretation of what your cat just said.
Yes — while individual cats have their own personalities and quirks, the core vocalisations are consistent across breeds. The more you use the app with your own cat, the better you'll get at spotting patterns in your cat's translations.
No. The raw audio of your cat never leaves your phone — sound classification runs entirely on-device. To generate the playful translation, we send only a short text summary (a few labels and confidence scores) to our service. See our Privacy Policy for the full detail.
Cat Translator requires iOS 26.2 or later. It's compatible with iPhone and iPad.
Absolutely. You can cancel anytime from your iPhone's Subscriptions settings. You'll keep premium access until the end of your current billing period.

Built by cat people, for cat people.

We're animal lovers who got tired of guessing what our cats wanted. So we built Cat Translator — and discovered that our cats had plenty to say all along.

Meet Gustav, our Product Consultant and Lead Tester. Most of this app was built under close keyboard supervision and occasional paw approvals.
