WhatsApp Rolls Out Message Translation Feature

WhatsApp is bringing in a new feature that allows users to translate messages into the language they prefer. Users can simply long-press any message and tap “Translate” to read it in a different language. The feature will be available in one-on-one chats, groups, and channel updates. Initially, Android users can translate messages into six languages, while iOS users will have 19 language options.

Android users will receive an additional feature that automatically translates entire chat threads. Once switched on, every incoming message in a conversation will be translated without the need to do it manually each time. So far, there’s no update on if or when WhatsApp will bring message translation to its web or Windows app.
