Google's real-time translation mode, interpreter, is now available on mobile devices and can be used on Android and iOS devices with Google Assistant.
Google first introduced the interpreter mode, which is the real-time translation feature, during the 2019 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
At the time, the interpreter mode was only available for Google Home speakers and third-party smart displays, including JBL, Sony, LG, and Lenovo.
Later, Google also announced this real-time translation feature on its blog. According to the official introduction, this real-time translation function supports 26 languages, and you can perform real-time communication translation with the help of Google Assistant.
It is worth mentioning that some media reported that the corresponding speed of the interpreter mode is fast, but there is a problem of time limitation.
The report pointed out that interpreter mode communication is usually limited to about 15 seconds, which requires users to wait for a response from Google Assistant before typing a few words of communication.
However, this also confirms the use of Google in the introduction of the official blog, which is suitable for short-talking hotels, airports, restaurants, etc.
Users only need to say words such as "Hey Google, become my German translator" or "Hey Google, speak Spanish for me" to activate the function.
Google Assistant then slides over a form to translate the conversation between the user 's native language and the target language. If the user is unsure of what is an acceptable response in a particular situation, this feature can also provide smart replies to drive the conversation at the time.
It's worth mentioning that this real-time translation feature can also provide some smart Gmail responses to help the conversation run smoothly.
Today, Google 's real-time translation feature is available on mobile. Among them, the most obvious improvement is the increase in translation languages. The report states that Google 's real-time translation feature currently supports 44 languages, including Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Arabic, Hindi, and Russian.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that, in the English language, Google launched a new version of Google Assistant this fall, which supports offline translation of English translations, and processes speech with "near zero" delays, providing a faster response than the previous generation devices Almost 10 times faster.
