WhatsApp has introduced a message translation feature to
break language barriers among its three billion users worldwide.
The company announced in a statement on Tuesday.
“If you see a message in a different language, you can now
simply long-press and tap ‘Translate’. Choose the language you want the message
to be translated from or to, and download it to be saved for future
translations,” WhatsApp said.
According to the messaging platform, the feature is
available in one-on-one chats, group chats, and channel updates.
WhatsApp also noted that Android users can enable automated
translation for an entire chat to ensure the default translation of future
messages.
The platform said the feature will be released gradually in
selected languages on both Android and iOS.
“Android users will find it available in six languages:
English, Spanish, Hindi, Portuguese, Russian, and Arabic. For our iPhone users,
the feature will launch in 19+languages,” the company said.
WhatsApp further assured users that the feature is designed
to protect their privacy.
