WhatsApp has rolled out a new feature that allows users to translate messages into different languages directly within the app, making cross-language communication easier than ever before.
The translation tool, now available on both Android and iOS, enables users to long-press a message and instantly translate it into their preferred language without leaving the chat window. This update is especially useful for users who frequently communicate with people from different linguistic backgrounds.
The feature supports a wide range of languages including Spanish, French, Arabic, Urdu, Hindi, Chinese, and many more. WhatsApp says the goal is to promote smoother and more inclusive global conversations.
Tech experts see this as a major step toward breaking down language barriers in real-time messaging, with potential benefits for travelers, international businesses, and multicultural communities.
Users can access the new feature by updating their app to the latest version via the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
