The “WhatsApp” application has begun testing an innovative and very important feature, which is the instant translation of text messages for iPhone users, with the aim of overcoming communication difficulties between individuals speaking different languages around the world.
This new feature relies on advanced language processing technologies that work directly on the user’s device, ensuring that conversations are kept confidential and encrypted. Users will be able to translate messages they receive instantly within the chat window itself, without having to exit the application or resort to external translation applications.
The technical websites stated that “WhatsApp” will allow downloading pre-defined language packages to facilitate the simultaneous translation process, which will help travelers and businessmen who need to communicate in multiple languages. It is expected that this feature will be released gradually to all users after the end of the testing period.
