Google has announced a new 'Interpreter Mode' for the Google Assistant app on iOS enabling real-time translations on your device.

To give you even more help during your trip, the Assistant’s real-time translation feature, interpreter mode, is starting to roll out today on Assistant-enabled Android and iOS phones worldwide. Using your phone, you can have a back and forth conversation with someone speaking a foreign language.

To use the feature, say “Hey Google, be my German translator” or “Hey Google, help me speak Spanish” and you’ll see and hear the translated conversation on your phone. After each translation, the Assistant may present Smart Replies, giving you suggestions that let you quickly respond without speaking—which can make your conversations faster and even more seamless.

Interpreter mode works across 44 languages. To access it on iOS, download the Google Assistant app from the link below.
