Google Translate works on iOS and Android devices iPhone and iPad users can download it from Apple's App Store, while Android users can snag it from Google Play.
Here’s how to use both the Google Translate app and Google Assistant. After you ask Google to help you with a specific language, the Assistant automatically translates your words so you can maintain a back-and-forth conversation with the other person. Google Assistant’s Interpreter mode, meanwhile, can offer real-time translations that will allow you to carry on a conversation with someone while speaking different languages. It even allows you to point your smartphone at a sign or menu written in a foreign language to view a live translation. The Google Translate app can translate dozens of languages, either through text or voice just type, write, or speak into the app. If you need to talk with someone who speaks a foreign language, translate a menu, transcribe a conversation, or dictate in another language, Google can come to your aid with two different apps available for iOS and Android devices.
