WhatsApp Message Translation Feature: Meta-owned platform WhatsApp has introduced a new message translation feature to help its three billion users talk across language barriers. The feature is rolling out on both iOS and Android in all 180 countries. Users just need to keep their WhatsApp updated to access it.
With this new feature, users can translate messages directly inside the app, making conversations smoother and more meaningful even if people speak different languages. The translate tool is designed to address the needs of WhatsApp’s linguistically diverse audience. The WhatsApp Message Translation feature works across one-on-one chats, group conversations, and even on WhatsApp Channels.

For iPhone users, the feature supports over 19 languages, offering a broader selection on Apple’s platform initially. However, it is not yet clear when the new feature will be available on the Windows and Web versions of the app.

WhatsApp Message Translation Feature: Security
The main highlight of this feature is its focus on privacy. WhatsApp explains that translations happen directly on your device instead of external servers, keeping your chats safe and out of WhatsApp’s reach.
