WhatsApp adds real time translation to bridge language gaps
Meta has rolled out a real time translation feature on WhatsApp, a move aimed at making cross language conversations smoother for its two billion users. The update allows messages in different languages to be instantly translated within the app, removing the need for third party tools or copy paste workarounds.
The feature currently supports a wide range of global and regional languages, including several spoken across India, one of WhatsApp’s largest markets. Users can toggle translation on or off in chat settings, and the system is powered by Meta’s in house AI models that continue to improve with usage.
Industry observers see the addition as another step in Meta’s broader strategy to bake generative AI into everyday digital interactions. By lowering the friction of multilingual communication, WhatsApp strengthens its role as a global default for messaging. For small businesses, customer support teams, and users in multilingual regions, the update could be transformative, opening conversations that previously hit a language wall.
