Google Translate is now powered by Gemini, includes live translations on headphones
"Today Google is finally revamping Google Translate, infusing it with Gemini capabilities in order to improve translations, especially on phrases with nuanced meanings like idioms, local expressions, or slang. This, Google says, is state-of-the-art translation quality, and you can find it in Google Search and in the Translate app on iOS and Android. The update is rolling out in the US and India today translating between English and "nearly 20 languages" including Spanish, Hindi, Chinese, Japanese, and German."
"There's also a new beta experience that lets you hear real-time translations in your headphones. This preserves the tone, emphasis and cadence of each speaker to create more natural translations and make it easier to follow along. Just put on your headphones, open the Translate app, and tap Live translate. This beta is now rolling out in the Translate app on Android in the US, Mexico, and India. More than 70 languages are supported. It will land in more places and on iOS in 2026."
"Finally, the language learning tools in Translate come with improved feedback - tips based on your speaking practice. There's also a way to challenge yourself and reach your learning goals by tracking how many days in a row you've been learning. The learning tools are also expanding to "nearly 20 new countries" and territories including Germany, India, Sweden, and Taiwan."
