  • WhatsApp Chats To Be Automatically Translated On Android, New Feature In The Works: Reports |

    New Delhi: Foreign language or a language not known to you might not bother you with WhatsApp’s upcoming new feature, that will automatically translate it on Android, said reports.

    As per an information shared by WABetaInfo, Meta-owned WhatsApp is reportedly working on a new feature to translate all chat messages, and it will be available in a future update!

    “In the article about the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.15.8 update, we announced that WhatsApp is working on a feature to translate messages using language packs. Through this improvement, it will enable users to easily communicate in multiple languages without needing external translation apps. The ability to translate messages instantly during conversations will help maintain the flow of communication, making it easier for users to understand and respond in real-time,” wrote WABetaInfo. 

    “Although this feature is still in development, it seems that WhatsApp is now committed to further enhancing this functionality through new automatic translation options. Thanks to the latest WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.15.9 update, which is available on the Google Play Store, we discovered that WhatsApp is working on a feature to translate all chat messages!,”  WABetaInfo added.

    Sharing a screenshot, WABetaInfo said that though previously it had explained that the upcoming feature relies on Google’s live translation technology to operate directly on the user device, the latest update has made its previous assumption incorrect. WhatsApp is instead working on its in-house technology to support the chat translation, it said.

    “Although we shared a screenshot of Google’s live translation sheet, which appeared for other reasons, it looks like WhatsApp is actually developing its own in-house technology to support message translation. This approach still preserves end-to-end encryption as their solution will process messages on-device. Therefore, WhatsApp needs to download some language packs to translate messages,” WABetaInfo.

  • WhatsApp’s New Feature To Let Users Share Music Audio During Video Call |

    New Delhi: Meta-owned WhatsApp is rolling out a new feature that will let users share music audio during a video call on Android.

    According to WABetaInfo, the ability to listen to video and music audio together is now available to some beta testers.

    “Specifically, when someone in the call shares their screen, audio they play on their device will also be shared with other people in the call. It’s important to note that this feature also works in individual calls, allowing users to enjoy a synchronised audio experience even in one-on-one video conversations,” the report noted.

    According to the report, the new feature not only promotes a sense of togetherness in group interactions but also brings an added layer of intimacy to one-on-one conversations.

    Moreover, users in a call can also watch videos together, experimenting with shared audio during their video calls, allowing participants to synchronise their video playback experiences, creating a virtual movie-watching or content-sharing session.

    The feature will be rolling out to even more people over the coming weeks, the report mentioned.

    Meanwhile, WhatsApp is reportedly developing a feature that will allow users to search for others through their username. Users will now be able to search for others by entering their username into the search bar, in a future update of the web client.

It has been told in the report that the conversation through unique username will also be secure with end-to-end encryption, that is, no third party other than the two users will be able to access the information. At present, to login to WhatsApp, users have to share their mobile number. However, many social media apps and messaging apps connect people even without a mobile number.

  • The most powerful feature is coming to Whatsapp! Now you can send photos in ‘HD quality’

    It will soon be possible to transfer photos in HD quality through WhatsApp. The Meta-owned app has released a new beta update related to it. WhatsApp has started testing the feature for the latest iOS and beta versions. At present, if any photo is sent through WhatsApp by default, it gets compressed. This affects the quality of the photo. People often say that the quality is not good when photos are sent through WhatsApp. This problem is about to be resolved. A feature may soon come on WhatsApp, with the help of which users will be able to send high-quality images. Social media consultant Matt Navarra was the first to spot this feature. While sharing some details of the feature, he has shared a screenshot. The option to send photos in HD quality is visible in the screenshot. HD quality images are clearer, but they consume more data and space than standard quality photos. This means that sending HD photos will cost more data. The space required to store HD photos will also be more. Meanwhile, WABetaInfo has shared another information related to the upcoming feature of WhatsApp. It is reported that this feature is currently available on iOS beta version 23.11.0.76 and Android beta version 2.23.12.13. According to the report, even after selecting the HD quality option, WhatsApp will compress the photo a bit. The standard quality option will be the default for sending the photo. To send HD photos, the user will have to select that option every time. When sending an HD photo, WhatsApp will also put a small HD icon in the thumbnail along with it. However, with the help of this feature, HD photos cannot be added to the status. According to the report, this feature may come to all users in the next few weeks.
