What Yandex Start is for

Yandex Start is a home page app built around a page you choose. It suits people who open the same few sites every day and want weather, traffic and search ready when they start, and people who read or watch content in languages they do not speak.

The listing describes three areas: the start page, translation of pages and images, and translation of videos. Each one is covered below.

Setting a start page and what sits on it

You can point the start page at any address. The listing's examples are ya.ru, the Yandex home page, and a site of your own.

On the home screen, the listing says you get a weather forecast for your area, traffic information, and a Yandex search box that shows quick suggestions.

Translating websites, sentences and images

Translation works on entire websites, on individual sentences, and on text that appears inside images. The listing covers more than a hundred languages.

The listing's use cases are reading a foreign site well enough to buy tickets on it, or checking a business's opening hours when you do not speak the local language.

Watching translated videos dubbed in Russian

Videos in English, German, Spanish, French and Italian are translated and voiced in Russian by Yandex's neural networks, according to the listing.

The listing names travel, cars, gadgets, scientific discoveries and recipes as the subjects, among others, of the videos it covers.
