Working method

As a meeting organiser you request an interpreting session with the desired configuration (time, languages, title, logo) in advance from cAPPisco at https://cappisco.com/en/tailor-made-options/. Or as a meeting organiser you have a MY cAPPisco Plan and therefore your own cAPPisco account. Do this before adding this to the specific Teams meeting.

Advantages

When you open the cAPPisco listening app in Microsoft Teams, you will be able to select the language of your choice. You can also listen to the original again at any time. Our app will automatically switch to the original speaker if no interpretation is needed for you selected language.

Restrictions

cAPPisco app for Microsoft Teams is not available on Mobile and Surface Hub devices. When you switch to other features (chat, participants list, etc.) in the sidepanel of the Microsoft Teams interface, this will interrupt the simultaneous translation. However, you can easily go back to the language interpretation feature by clicking on the cAPPisco logo again.

How to use

The meeting organiser will need to add the cAPPisco app in your sheduled

meeting. As an attendee you will see the cAPPisco logo appear in your ongoing

meeting. Click the icon to open our app in the meeting

sidepanel. Now you can select your preferred language and start listening to

the live simultaneous interpretation.
