Apple's new iOS 26 makes live translation seamless
Need to translate something? With Apple's new iOS 26, it should be easier than ever.
During its opening WWDC keynote on Monday, Apple detailed a host of new Live Translation features built right into iOS and powered by in-house models that run on iPhones.
Now, Live Translation can automatically translate your text in Messages, live captions in FaceTime, and even your phone calls as you talk. In this last instance, the person on the other side of the call will simply hear a spoken, translated version of whatever you said.

The best part: This will work even if you're calling someone who doesn't have an iPhone.
Apple also said it's adding a new Call Translation API, so developers can also use this technology in their apps.
