WhatsApp Rolls Out In-App Translation: Read Messages Instantly in Your Language

Not everyone is fluent in multiple languages, and receiving a message in English or another unfamiliar language on WhatsApp often becomes a challenge. To solve this, WhatsApp has introduced a built-in translation feature, eliminating the need for third-party apps.

How to Use WhatsApp Message Translation

• Long-press the message you want to translate.

• Tap the Translate option.

• Choose your preferred language, and the message will instantly be converted.
  This feature works seamlessly across individual chats, group conversations, and channel updates.

Auto-Translation for Android Users

For Android users, WhatsApp has added an automatic chat translation option

. Once enabled, all incoming messages will be directly translated into your preferred language.

• Android currently supports Hindi, English, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, and Arabic.

• iPhone users get even broader access, with support for 19+ languages.

Privacy Assured

WhatsApp has clarified that all translations happen locally on your device. This means your messages are neither stored nor read by the company, ensuring complete privacy.

This feature is being rolled out gradually and will expand to more languages soon. With WhatsApp already connecting 3 billion users across 180 countries

, this update makes communication even more inclusive and effortless.
