WhatsApp: Google will not be used for automatic translation, Meta itself is capable

A few days ago there was a news that Meta is working on a new feature for its instant messaging app WhatsApp, after which WhatsApp messages will be translated in real-time. Earlier it was said that WhatsApp would use Google's live translation technology for this, but now it has become clear that Meta will not use any technology of Google for WhatsApp.

According to Amar Ujala, it is being said that Meta will use its own technology for WhatsApp's live translation. This feature of WhatsApp is currently being tested on the beta version. There is no information in this regard as to when its final version will be released.

WABetaInfo, which tracks WhatsApp innovations, has revealed details about the app's forthcoming features. This website has now stated that no third-party technology business would provide assistance with real-time translation. In such a case, the main benefit will be that the translated messages will be end-to-end encrypted.

The tracker has also provided an image of Android's beta version 2.24.15.12. This function is referred to as "Translate your message," but the exact name will be revealed only when it has been launched. WhatsApp has stated, "Your texts are end-to-end encrypted. No one, not even WhatsApp, can read them." That means, your messages are completely encrypted from beginning to end. Nobody, not even WhatsApp, can see your communications.
