WhatsApp now makes automatic text translation
The social network for sharing messages has launched a new function to translate messages into chats in different languages, so that conversations can be read automatically in the chosen language, facilitating communication.
Whatsapphas launched a new feature totranslate messages into chats in different languages so that conversations can be read automatically in the chosen language, facilitating communication.
The social network for sharing messages has recalled that it has more than 3 billion users in more than 180 countries, so language can sometimes be an "obstacle" to being properly expressed through the app.
Thus, to facilitate communication regardless of where they are in the world, WhatsApp has implemented the return of messages for individual chats, group chats and channels.
With this function, it will suffice to keep the message in another language pressed and select the "Translate" option so that the text changes to the language previously selected by the user.
In addition, automatic translation for a full chat conversation has also been activated on Android devices instead of individual messages, in which case all future messages from the conversation will return abruptly as they are received.
However, it should be borne in mind that the language to which the messages are to be translated or the language from which they are to be translated must be chosen beforehand, that is, users must download the language and save it for subsequent translations.
WhatsApp emphasizes that this tool has been designed to maintain chat privacy, so translations are made on a device with downloaded language and the company cannot access content.
However, translations have begun to take off for WhatsApp on Android and iPhone devices, which for the time being will be available in the selected languages but will soon be released.
In the case of Android, translations have been made in English, Spanish, Hindi, Portuguese, Russian and Arabic. On the other hand, iPhone users have this function in more than 19 languages, including those mentioned above.
"We hope this function will help break down language barriers and allow users to connect more deeply with people and communities around the world," WhatsApp said.
