Brazilian Portuguese

Less signal.
Still time to practice.

Take Brazilian Portuguese with you: on a trip, on your commute, or during a quiet break. Download Apple’s speech model before you go and practice with on-device recognition on a supported iPhone.

A quick check before you travel.

Prepare while you have Wi-Fi. On this iPhone requires iOS 26 or later; the app checks model availability for your selected language.

01
Open recognition settings

In Start Speaking, select Portuguese, then open Settings → Recognition → On this iPhone.

02
Wait for Ready

If Download and enable appears, tap it. Wait for Ready and the checkmark beside On this iPhone.

03
Try it without a connection

Turn on Airplane Mode and turn Wi-Fi off. Start a new session: listen to a phrase, speak, and get your result.

Progress and history stay on your device. Check that the voice for model phrases is downloaded, too. If the speech model is not ready, finish preparing it on Wi-Fi; text mode lets you practice without speech recognition.

01

Prepare while connected

Open the app while you have internet access. Complete the Apple-managed speech-model download for Brazilian Portuguese if the app asks for it. Use a supported iPhone and select on-device recognition for offline speaking practice.

02

Check before you leave

Finish setup with a quick practice session without a connection. Listen, speak, and see your result — then carry that routine into your day.

03

Keep your practice close

Your progress and history stay on your device, ready for your next session. Choose speaking practice when you have a moment to talk, or use text practice when you want a quiet session.

Your first phrase is a few taps away.
