Bridgi is a Hebrew–English translation keyboard for iOS. You type English in any app; Bridgi translates it to Hebrew and inserts it. This page covers setup and the questions we get most. If your question isn't answered here, email support@bridgi.app and we'll get back to you.

Setting up the keyboard

Open the Bridgi app once after installing.
Go to Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards → Add New Keyboard and choose Bridgi.
Tap Bridgi in that list and turn on Allow Full Access.
In any chat, tap the 🌐 globe key to switch to Bridgi, type your message in English, and tap Translate. Your text is replaced with the Hebrew translation, ready to send.

Why does Bridgi need Full Access?

Full Access lets the keyboard hand your text to the Bridgi app running on your device, which runs the translation and sends the result back — entirely on your iPhone, through a sandboxed on-device channel (App Groups). It is not used to send anything off your device. The translation runs locally; no server is involved and no network call is made. Without Full Access, iOS does not allow the keyboard extension to reach the Bridgi app, so the Translate button cannot work.

The Translate button isn't doing anything

Make sure Allow Full Access is turned on for Bridgi (Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards → Bridgi).
Make sure you've switched to the Bridgi keyboard with the 🌐 globe key — the Translate button only appears on Bridgi.
If it still doesn't respond, fully quit and reopen the app you're typing in, then try again.

What languages does Bridgi support?

Version 1 does one thing well: you type in English and Bridgi inserts Hebrew. More language pairs and directions are on the way.

Is my typing private?

Yes. Bridgi translates on your device. Nothing you type is sent to any server, and Bridgi collects no data. See the Privacy Policy for the full detail.
