It&#8217;s called the <strong>Translate<\/strong> app, and it is part of the powerful feature set of iOS 14. Let&#8217;s take a look at how it works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What languages does the Translate app support?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In this first iteration of the Translate app, the following languages are supported: English (US &amp; UK), Spanish (Spain), Chinese (Mandarin, Simplified), Japanese, Korean, Russian, German (Germany), French (France), Italian (Italy), Portuguese (Brazil), and&nbsp;Arabic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does the Translate app require an Internet connection?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Translate can work with or without an Internet connection, but for the best usability, it&#8217;s best to download a language before you travel. For example, let&#8217;s say I&#8217;m going on a European trip and will be visiting France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. I can download <strong>offline languages<\/strong> so that all of the translation is done on my iPhone \u2013 no internet connection or expensive roaming plan required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is done by launching the app, then tapping one of the two languages listed at the top of the screen. Doing so displays a &#8220;Languages&#8221; screen showing recently-used languages, all languages available, and available offline languages. To download Spanish to my iPhone, I just tap the download button to the right of Spanish and transfer the necessary files. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: solid 1px #ccc;\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_261D84F42D3C-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-66477\" width=\"621\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_261D84F42D3C-1.jpeg 1242w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_261D84F42D3C-1-284x100.jpeg 284w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_261D84F42D3C-1-190x67.jpeg 190w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_261D84F42D3C-1-284x100@2x.jpeg 568w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_261D84F42D3C-1-190x67@2x.jpeg 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 621px) 100vw, 621px\" \/><figcaption>To download a language for offline use, tap the blue download button to the right of the listed language<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>When the download is completed, the download button turns to a green checkmark to indicate that Spanish is now loaded onto my iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Text Translation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps you&#8217;re in a restaurant in A Coru\u00f1a, Spain and you want to know exactly what a dish named &#8220;Pulpo Gallego&#8221; is. Pull out your trusty iPhone, fire up Translate, and make sure that English and Spanish are listed on the top of the screen. If you need to change the language, tap on one of the two languages, and the list of available languages is displayed \u2013 tap one to go to a new language. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the screen, you&#8217;ll see a prompt to Enter text \u2013 tap it. Now the display shows a text field with buttons for the two languages, English and Spanish, at the bottom. Since I&#8217;m going to be typing a Spanish phrase into the field for translation, I tap Spanish and the prompt changes to &#8220;Introducir texto&#8221;. The keyboard also changes to Spanish, with the space bar labeled with &#8220;espacio&#8221; and the &#8220;go&#8221; key marked with &#8220;ir&#8221;. Tap in Pulpo Gallego, tap &#8220;ir&#8221;, and we see that the mystery meat is Galician octopus. Now I know that this dish is made with Octopus and it&#8217;s popular in Galicia (northwest Spain near Portugal). In case you&#8217;re wondering, it&#8217;s also delicious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: solid 1px #ccc;\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_C48E3CE7B1A5-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-66480\" width=\"621\" height=\"407\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_C48E3CE7B1A5-1.jpeg 1242w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_C48E3CE7B1A5-1-183x120.jpeg 183w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_C48E3CE7B1A5-1-284x186.jpeg 284w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_C48E3CE7B1A5-1-190x125.jpeg 190w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_C48E3CE7B1A5-1-100x65.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_C48E3CE7B1A5-1-183x120@2x.jpeg 366w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_C48E3CE7B1A5-1-284x186@2x.jpeg 568w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_C48E3CE7B1A5-1-190x125@2x.jpeg 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 621px) 100vw, 621px\" \/><figcaption>Type in the Spanish phrase and the English translation appears<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>To hear how the Spanish phrase is actually pronounced, I can highlight the Spanish words, tap Speak&#8230; on the popup menu, and select Espa\u00f1ol as the language. If I want more of an idea of what a word really means, I can select it with a tap, then tap Look Up in the popup menu. It&#8217;s there that I find out that not only is pulpo Spanish for octopus, but it&#8217;s also used as a term for a bungee strap! If I decide that I absolutely love Pulpo Gallego and want to order it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, I can mark that phrase as a favorite by tapping the star (\u2605) button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conversation Mode<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Text translation is useful, but not when you&#8217;re trying to speak with someone in a foreign language. That&#8217;s where Translate&#8217;s <strong>Conversation Mode<\/strong> comes in handy. Say I&#8217;m in Germany, have pre-loaded the German language into the translator, and I get an inexplicable craving for cheese. Now I could definitely use the text translator, but conversation mode is much easier. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conversation mode uses your voice, and the voices of people around you, as the way of entering text into the translator. While you&#8217;re in Translate, you&#8217;ll see a microphone button that looks like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"267\" height=\"239\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_ED46E2C86338-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Tap the microphone and begin speaking to have a phrase translated\" class=\"wp-image-66479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_ED46E2C86338-1.jpeg 267w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_ED46E2C86338-1-134x120.jpeg 134w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_ED46E2C86338-1-190x170.jpeg 190w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_ED46E2C86338-1-134x120@2x.jpeg 268w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 267px) 100vw, 267px\" \/><figcaption>Tap the microphone and begin speaking to have a phrase translated<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Tap it and begin speaking (or have another person speak into your iPhone) and immediately, you&#8217;ll see the translation on the screen and hear the phrase spoken in German.

First, what if you don&#8217;t know what language a person is speaking? It would be nice to just have the iPhone &#8220;listen&#8221; to a person talking, understand what language is being spoken, and then start the translation. Second, tapping the microphone button isn&#8217;t conducive to true conversation &#8212; perhaps if the app could determine what words are part of a conversation and what is extraneous talking, the iPhone could just translate in real-time with no need to constantly tap the button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also miss one feature of another, more mature translation app \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/google-translate\/id414706506\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Google Translate<\/strong><\/a> (App Store link).
