What Is Live Translate Anyway?
For those catching up, the Live Translate feature uses on-device processing to translate calls on the go. It is a part of Galaxy AI, the suite of GenAI features that Samsung debuted with the Galaxy S24 series. To use the feature, users must tap the Call Assist feature and then hit Live Translate as both speakers start speaking. The translation then appears on the screen.
For now, Live Translate is available on the Galaxy S24 and S23 series and other Galaxy devices released in the last two to three years. Samsung could soon release an OTA update to integrate it with WhatsApp on supported models. More information about the feature should appear soon.
