From early days Star trek A universal translator has been a science-sensation that lets us all chat together, no matter our original tongue. This dream can become a reality with iOS 19 and airpods.
As BloombergMark Gurman, we can expect this live translation feature to appear with iOS 19, which will be leveraged by airpods.
This is not clear in this initial stage whether it will be a feature for current airpods or if it will launch with new AirPods Pro 3 that is expected to come later this year.
It is clear that you will be able to hear while wearing your airpods, and apple translate live.
How does live translation works?
Here is to consider Airpods To take audio in the room, feed the remote area using microphones and feed the connected iPhone.
The iPhone will work in a language that will work in processing, translate it into the original tongue of the wearer, and that on the airpods, playing live.
Usually, it reportedly works both ways. This would mean that if the wearer answers in his original tongue, the iPhone will say it on the speaker of another person in his own language.
Therefore, in theory, both must be able to be relatively forward and back, without the need to understand each other’s language.
What is not clear whether it will be basically on the phone, or if it will require an internet connection. Perhaps it will require a network connection, so it must be a decent to ensure that there is a lack of lag, should be integral.
When will live translation come in airpods?
Rumors show that this live translation feature will come as the next part IOS 19 update. It is expected to be declared and launched in the normal cycle of Apple, which means in June in WWDC 2025.
