Google Translate has launched a new and incredibly useful feature for Android users. This feature is called 'Real-time Headphone Translation'. Currently in beta, it supports over 70 languages. Now you can listen to conversations or audio in another language and hear the translation directly through your headphones.

A fantastic feature for international travelers
Even today, language barriers cause significant difficulties for people, especially during international travel. To make this easier, Google has introduced this new feature. This feature transforms your regular headphones into a live translator. With this, you no longer need to read the translation on the screen. Google Translate will listen to the spoken language and instantly deliver the translation to your ears. Google says that this feature also attempts to understand the speaker's tone, pace, and emphasis to translate sound more naturally. The good news is that this feature works with both wired and Bluetooth headphones.

How to use live translation with headphones?
Using this feature is very easy. First, you need to open the Google Translate app on your Android phone. Then, connect your wired or Bluetooth headphones to your phone. You will see a 'Live Translate' option; tap on it. Now, select the language you are listening to and the language you want the translation in. And now the translated audio will come directly to your headphones. This feature can be incredibly useful for live conversations, speeches, lectures, and during travel.

Gemini AI has also been integrated into the new feature.
Google has also integrated Gemini AI to make the translation even smarter. Now, the app doesn't just translate word-for-word, but also understands the meaning and context of the conversation. For example, the English idiom 'Stealing my thunder' will now be translated based on its correct meaning, not just the individual words. This makes the translation more natural and understandable.

In which languages ​​and countries is this update available?
This update is currently rolling out in India and the United States. It supports approximately 20 languages, including English, Hindi, Spanish, German, Japanese, Arabic, and Chinese.

When will you get this feature?
Currently, this feature is available in beta version on Android phones in India, the US, and Mexico. According to Google, this feature will be available to iPhone users and in other countries by 2026. This means iOS users will have to wait a little longer.
