Google turns Gemini into a live translator inside your headphones
Google is integrating Gemini into Google Translate so text translations handle idioms, slang and local expressions much more naturally instead of word by word output. The upgraded text translation is rolling out in the US and India for English and nearly 20 languages, including Spanish, Hindi, Chinese, Japanese and German, on Android, iOS and the web.
At the same time, a new live translation beta lets Gemini perform speech to speech translation straight into your headphones, preserving the speaker’s tone, intonation and rhythm. The beta is currently available on Android in the US, Mexico and India with support for 70+ languages, with iOS and more countries coming in 2026.
