TL;DR
- Google is working to remove an annoying limitation with its Live Translate feature.
- While it currently only works when users wear headphones, Google could soon bring a workaround.
- Instead, users could just use their phone’s earpiece to listen to audio that’s translated in real-time.
Real-time translations have long been marketed as a selling point for high-end wireless earbuds, such as the Pixel Buds Pro 2. Last year, Google expanded the ability to a broader range of devices, letting you use virtually any headset to listen to a translated version of what’s being said in your surroundings, whether that’s something being said by a person or through a digital interface, such as a screen.
While the Live Translate feature on Android and iOS only functions when you use headphones or earphones, that may be about to change soon.
