Samsungs Live Translate feature is expanding support to these messaging ap

[phillynews215]

• Samsungs Live Translate feature will work with 9 third-party messaging apps in One UI 6.1.1.
• The feature was first introduced in One UI 6.1 where it only worked with phone calls through the Samsung Dialer app.
• Live Translate provides real-time, two-way translations during voice calls, supporting 16 different languages.

Translation services like Google Translate have made it dramatically easier to communicate with people who speak other languages, but theres still a lot of room for improvement, especially in the area of real-time interpretation. For example, although Google Translate can help you hold a two-way, in-person spoken conversation with someone else, it cant act as an interpreter during phone calls. Thats something that Samsungs Live Translate feature offers, though. With the forthcoming One UI 6.1.1 update, Live Translate will not only translate speech during regular phone calls but also during voice calls in several popular third-party messaging apps.

Live Translate debuted on the Samsung Galaxy S24 series earlier this year. Its a One UI 6.1 feature that acts as a real-time, two-way interpreter during phone calls. During phone calls, Live Translate can be activated by pulling down the Quick Settings panel and tapping on the Live Translate button. Once activated, a dialog is shown that displays the words from both sides as theyre being spoken, transcribed, and subsequently translated. Its a neat feature, albeit one with limited use since it only worked with regular phone calls.
