A Practical Example of Real-Time Communication
Imagine you’re fluent in English but find yourself conversing with someone who speaks French. With this new live translation feature, your AirPods would capture the speech and relay it to your iPhone. The Translate app would then process and translate it instantly before sending the audio back through your earphones. This method resembles functionalities available in competing devices; for instance, Google Buds have seamlessly offered real-time language translation since 2017.
Enhancements Beyond Earbuds
Gurman notes that Apple’s enhancements don’t stop at the earbuds—the company is reportedly improving its translation capabilities within iOS 19 as a whole. While further details are scarce, there’s speculation that Apple might integrate advanced real-time translations on-device across various applications; imagine translating content from platforms like YouTube or TikTok instantaneously. Anticipation builds as we await more revelations about these transformative features during WWDC in June.
