How to translate a web page on iphone with microsoft translator.

If you're running iOS 14 or later, Safari now comes with a translation feature baked into the browser, making it easier than ever to translate a web page on iPhone and iPad.

Once enabled, text is translated in-line on the webpage that you're viewing. It's a handy tool if you want to read websites that are written in different languages, and it's available right in the address bar in Safari.

With this in mind, here's how you can translate web pages in Safari on iPhone and iPad.

How to translate a web page on iPhone in iOS 16 and iPadOS 16

In iOS 15 and later, the ability to translate a web page's language to your native language is now a built-in part of Safari. As such, you no longer need a third-party app to translate. Here's how to use built-in language translation in Safari in iOS 14, iOS 15, and later.

  • Tap the action button on the left side of the address bar while visiting a site that you need to translate. The button looks like two A's next to each other.
  • Tap Translate to [Your Device Language] .
  • Tap Enable Translation if prompted.

Your page will then be translated into the primary language that you've set on your device. If you want to revert back to the page's original language, take the following steps.

  • Tap the translate button in the Safari address bar. It takes the place of the standard action button on the left side of the address bar.
  • Tap View Original .

The page will revert to its original language.

If you're running a version of iOS 13 or earlier on your device, then a third-party app with a translation extension is what you'll want to use. Microsoft's Translator extension is an excellent tool for the task, as it translates the web page in place when activated.

Microsoft Translator

Microsoft Translator

Microsoft Translator is a great third-party solution for translating web pages, and its translations take place in-line on the web, rather than taking you to another, translated version of the page like some other apps.

Once you've got it downloaded, you can set up the action extension for translation web pages.

  • Open Safari on your iPhone or iPad.
  • While viewing a web page, tap the share button .
  • Scroll to the left on the bottom row of icons.
  • Tap the More button.
  • Turn the switch next to Microsoft Translator to the green 'on' position.

Now that you have the app installed, you can use it in Safari from the share menu.

  • Head to the web page that you want to translate.
  • Tap the share button at the bottom of the display.
  • Tap the Microsoft Translator button. The extension will then translate the entire page for you.

How to Translate Webpages in Safari on iPhone & iPad

Did you know you can translate webpages in Safari on iPhone and iPad? If you’re on a foreign language website, you can easily translate it into English using a fantastic language webpage translation feature built into Safari for iOS and iPadOS. And yes, this feature also exists in Safari for Mac , in case you were wondering.

Not everything that you see on the web is written in English, and whether you’re browsing foreign news sites or just ending up with something not in English, you may find it useful to translate a webpage into something you can read. Safari now has this capability, and you can easily convert a webpage from French, Spanish, Chinese, etc, into English with just a few taps. This is similar to a Chrome language translation for webpages on iPhone and iPad , except of course it’s using Safari, the default browser in iOS and iPadOS.

Ready to use and access the built-in translator for webpages in Safari for iPhone and iPad? Let’s get to it!

How to Translate Webpages on iPhone & iPad with Safari

As long as your iPhone or iPad is running iOS 14 / iPadOS 14 or newer, the language translation feature will be available. Here’s how it works:

Safari Icon

Now you know how to go about translating webpages in Safari natively on the iPhone and iPad. No new apps or third party downloads are required.

If you can’t find the Translate feature within Safari despite running a compatible system software version, it’s probably because Safari’s built-in translator is currently limited to users in select regions, but the feature is rolling out elsewhere too as it is refined by Apple.

If your iPhone or iPad is running an older version of iOS/iPadOS, or isn’t compatible with the iOS 14/iPadOS 14 update, you can still translate webpages in Safari using Microsoft Translator . You’ll of course need to download the Microsoft Translator app from the App Store and keep it installed to access this feature within Safari.Switching to Google Chrome is an alternate option as well, and the translation feature in Chrome works flawlessly and it can automatically translate most of the webpages to not just English, but any of your preferred languages if you’re not a native English speaker. This makes Chrome a great choice if you’re in an area that isn’t supported by Safari webpage translations yet.

What do you think of Safari’s built-in translator tool for converting foreign webpages to English? Do you use this feature? Do you have another method to convert a webpage to English from another language? Share with us your tips, thoughts, and comments below!

I am not able to see translate option in my iPad pro

I need this. I will see if it helps. Thx.

This only works for select few languages. Pales in comparison to Google Translate. Ot’s going to take Apple another 5,10 years to catch up with other languages… if at all 😢. This article is bit misleading. It does not explain how limited this feature is

I’m running high seirra 10 13 6 and when I type in a foreign website (orange fr as you suggested to test it) next to each selection is written ‘translate this page’ and there is no ‘aA’ in the selection which I guess is even better? Works perfectly and thanks for all your suggestions; I am subscribed to OSXDaily Regards, earl

This is EXACTLY why I look at osxdaily every single day.

I’ve used Macs since 1984. I like to think I know my way around the Macintosh world – which I do.

A couple of times a month, more or less, this site shows me something that I simply never knew.

How to translate web pages in Safari on iPhone and iPad

Ava

Have you landed on a webpage in a foreign language when browsing Safari but can’t read it? Though many translation tools are available, Safari also offers a built-in translation feature to understand web pages in different languages. So, you don’t need to install any third-party tools or extensions. Let’s learn how to translate a webpage in Safari on iPhone and iPad.

How to translate a webpage in Safari on iPhone and iPad

How to add preferred languages to safari webpage translation on iphone, why is my translate button missing in safari on iphone, how to use translator extensions in safari on iphone.

Safari supports translation to Arabic, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Dutch, English, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Spanish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.

Just check for the “Translation Available” popup in the address bar to ensure the website offers translation. Now, follow the steps below to translate web pages in Safari on iOS:

  • Open Safari → Go to the webpage you want to translate.
  • Tap the AA icon located in the address bar.
  • Select Translate to [language] .

tap aa icon, select translate language, tap enable translation in safari

By default, Safari will only translate into your device’s default language. However, you can add other supported languages rather than your device’s default one.

  • Launch  Settings → Go to  General.

tap general, language and region in settings

  • Tap  Add Language  and choose a Safari-supported language .

tap add language, select a language, tap use system language in settings

  • Go to the desired website and tap the AA icon on the address bar.

tap aa icon, translate website, choose a language in safari

Are you using iOS 13? If yes, you don’t have the built-in translation feature. Therefore, you must install third-party language translators like Microsoft Translator or Translator Safari extension. Now, use these Safari extensions on your iPhone and translate any web page to your preferred language.  

If you use iOS 17, the translation option may be missing because your device language is set to the same language as the webpage you want to translate. Besides, the website may be incompatible with Safari’s translation tool or not support your preferred language.

If you still see the translate button missing on Safari, you can clear your cache and browsing history or reset your iPhone . Alternatively, use a Safari translator extension and enjoy content in your native language.

There are multiple Safari extensions to accomplish the same. Here, I have used Microsoft Translator to illustrate the below method.

  • Download Microsoft Translator .
  • Go to  Safari  and open any  website you’d like to translate.
  • Tap the  Share icon.

Open Safari Tap on Share and Select Translator

If you do not see the  ‘Translator’  option in the Share Sheet, tap  Edit Actions , locate, and tap the  green plus icon  for Translator. Also, toggle on Translator . Finally, tap  Done . Now, you will see the option to translate in the Share Sheet.

To add other languages to the Microsoft Translator extension, follow the steps below:

  • Open the  Microsoft Translator app  → Tap the  settings icon  at the bottom right.
  • Now, tap  Safari Translation Language  → Select your preferred languages .

So, that’s all for today, folks!

Thanks to the embedded translation feature, you can now easily translate a webpage in Safari without leaving the website. You can also  use Google Lens on your Mac  to translate text from images. What’s your preferred language to consume content? Let me know in the comments below.

How to translate a page in Safari on iPhone, iPad, and Mac

Learn how to use Apple’s built-in translation tool to translate web pages in Safari on iPhone, iPad, and Mac if you come across a website that’s in a language you can’t read or understand.

Safari Translate Webpage iPad

Supported devices and languages

You can use Apple’s native web page translation feature inside Safari on an iPhone, iPad, and Mac running iOS 14, iPadOS 14, or macOS Big Sur and later to translate into the following languages :

  • Chinese (Simplified)
  • Chinese (Traditional)
  • Portuguese (Brazil)

This method requires no third-party app download or Siri shortcut installation.

How to translate a web page in Safari

On iphone or ipad.

  • Visit the website you want to translate in Safari.
  • Tap AA from the address bar and choose Translate to English or a language you see there.
  • The first time you do this, Apple will ask your permission to process your request. Tap Enable Translation .

Translate to English in Safari on Mac

Using Apple’s web page translation

  • Automatic translation: After translating one web page on a website, if you tap another link on that same site (domain) in the same original language, Safari should automatically translate it to your chosen language so you don’t have to follow the translation steps again and again while reading that website.
  • View Original: After you follow the above steps, you can tap the AA button on iOS or the translate icon on Mac and choose View Original to get back to the original language of that web page.
  • Inform Apple of issues: If you think the translation provided by Apple in Safari is incorrect, inappropriate, or broken, use the Report Translation Issue button, pick an appropriate reason, and hit Report to submit your feedback.

View web page in original language in Safari on Mac

Add more language to Safari translation

Apple says that “ the availability of translations and the number of languages that can be translated may vary by country or region .”

With that in mind, you can have more options for Safari translation by adding that language to your system’s language settings.

Go to Settings > General > Language & Region > Add Language and select a language . Now, you can choose to set this new language as your primary system language for all menus, settings, and everything. However, if you only need to use it for translation, tap Use English (or your current system language). This will add the new language to your iPhone but still keep English as the primary system language.

Add more languages to iPhone in Settings

Now go to Safari, and it should automatically refresh your open web pages. After that, follow the above steps, and you will see Translate Website instead of Translate to English. Tap Translate Website and pick a language .

Translate Website in other languages in Safari on iPhone

Click the translate icon in the Safari address bar and choose Preferred Languages . You can also reach this setting screen by going to System Settings > General > Language & Region . Now, click the plus button (+) under the Preferred Languages heading, choose your language, and click Add . Like the iPhone, you can use the new language as your system language or continue to use English. After this, if you’re prompted to add this new language to your Mac’s keyboard, you can hit Cancel .

Adding more languages to Mac from System Settings

Next, visit Safari, and you should see the option to Translate to the newly added language .

Option to translate web page into multiple languages in Safari on Mac

Restart your device if you don’t see the language for translation in Safari even after adding it by following the above steps.

How to translate any webpage on your iPhone with a free browser extension, so you can read foreign websites and articles

  • You can translate any page in Safari on your iPhone using the Microsoft Translator app.
  • Once you've downloaded the Microsoft Translator app onto your iPhone, you can open it in Safari to translate the page you're on.
  • Before you can translate, you'll need to enable Microsoft Translator in Safari.

The internet is open to everyone, but language barriers can prevent you from reading articles and texts that are only available in foreign languages. 

However, with only an iPhone's Safari app and the Microsoft Translator extension, you can quickly and easily translate any text on your phone. 

I've tested it on periodicals in French, Chinese, and more, and found it perfectly capable of translating anything I need.

Here's how to translate a page on your iPhone using Microsoft Translator.

Check out the products mentioned in this article:

Iphone 11 (from $699.99 at best buy), how to translate a page on an iphone, install the translator.

1. Download the Microsoft Translator from the App Store, and it should automatically become an extension to your Safari app.

2. Open Safari on your iPhone.

3. Tap the Share button at the bottom (the rectangle with an arrow coming out of it).

  • Scroll down to the very bottom of the Share menu. The Translator option should be at the bottom. If it isn't, tap "Edit Actions…" and find it on the screen that appears, then tap the switch next to it to turn it green.
  • Scroll left on the bottom row of icons (the one that usually displays "Add Bookmarks" and "Add to Reading List") and tap on "More." Scroll down on the next screen to Microsoft Translator (or on some iPhones, simply "Translator"). Tap on the Translator switch so it turns green.

5. Tap on "Done." 

Translator should now be a default icon in your Share menu. The next step is to translate a site.

Translate a page

1. Open the page you want to translate. For this example, I'm using the French newspaper Le Monde.

2. Tap on the Share button. Find the Microsoft Translator shortcut (displaying either the word "Translator" or the app's icon ). 

3. Tap on the shortcut. A yellow status bar will appear at the top of the webpage telling you how much of the page has been translated.

4. Once everything is translated, the status bar will say "Translated to en."

Turns out, it's very easy to translate a webpage to English on your iPhone, so let's take a look at how.

Translate Web Pages in Safari with Microsoft Translator

Microsoft Translator is far more efficient and versatile that the built-in translation tool in Safari. So, you shouldn’t worry if your device isn’t running iOS 14 or you don’t live in the USA or Canada where the Safari translation is currently available.

Open Safari on your iPhone

  • Though not as efficient as Microsoft Translator, Shortcuts app can also let you translate selected web pages in Safari. To get started, open the Shortcuts app and tap on the Gallery.
  • After that, search for Translate the Selected part of a web page . Then, add the shortcut to your library. After that, open Safari -> web page -> share button. Then, choose the shortcut.

iOS 14: How to translate websites on iPhone and iPad

Avatar for Michael Potuck

One of the less flashy but valuable upgrades that arrives with Safari this year is built-in translation. Follow along for a look at how to translate websites on iPhone and iPad in iOS 14 and iPadOS 14.

In addition to the dedicated new Translate app for iPhone and iPad in iOS 14/iPadOS 14, Safari also gets the ability to translate entire websites with the latest software. The feature is in beta but working well, and it’s great to see Apple adding features like this that Google’s Chrome browser has offered for some time.

As we noted in our hands-on with iOS 14’s new Translate app , 11 languages are supported for now with Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. The same is likely true for Safari’s translate feature.

How to translate websites on iPhone and iPad in iOS 14

  • On iPhone or iPad, open a website in Safari that’s in a foreign language
  • Tap the aA icon in the top-left corner of your screen (in the url/search bar)
  • Choose Translate to English (or your other primary language)
  • The first time you use the feature, tap Enable Translation to use the beta
  • You can tap the aA icon to turn off translations

Here’s how those steps look:

Site default logo image

With Apple’s new website translation feature in Safari still being in beta, it naturally isn’t perfect, but it works well overall already and is available for most of the websites we’ve visited in a foreign language.

One issue we’ve seen, for example, is the feature trying to translate names, like my colleague Filipe Espósito. Funny enough the article where Safari changes his name to “Deposit Philip” happened to be about Apple Pay 😂 (this is something that Google’s Chrome browser translate feature also has trouble with).

Once you’ve tapped the translation button for a website, it will work automatically for any pages within the same domain. When visiting a new website in a foreign language, repeat the same steps as above.

While Apple’s Translate app can be used offline with all local device processing, the company notes that the Safari translation feature relies on Apple servers to work but that it doesn’t store any information from the websites you visit/translate.

Have you tried out the new translate websites feature in iOS 14 or iPadOS 14? What have you experienced? Let us know down in the comments section!

How to translate web pages in Safari on iPhone

Submitted by Jon Reed on September 3, 2020 - 11:17am

How to translate web pages with Safari on iPhone and iPad.

Not only did iOS 14 introduce a real-time Translate app but it gave Safari the long overdue ability to translate web pages as well. It is currently (beta version) limited to English, French, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, Brazilian Portuguese, German and Russian. You'll likely have to edit your language settings, but once you have them set it is simple to use.

Here's how to translate a web page in Safari on iPhone and iPad:

  • First off, you will need to add any languages you might want to translate from to your preferred languages list. Head to Settings -> General -> Language & Region and tap Add Language. Choose the language you want to translate from.

How to translate web pages with Safari on iPhone and iPad.

  • You will be asked whether you want to keep your main language or change it to the language you are adding. Select Keep. Now it will take a few seconds to add the new language.

  • If you need to edit your preferred language list, tap Edit in the top right, then tap the "-" button to the left of any languages you wish to remove (apparently you can only change the order by deleting them and then adding them again, which may just be a bug).

  • Once you have your languages set, open Safari and head to a web page that you want to translate, then tap the "aA" button to the left of the URL. Select the Translate option from the dropdown menu.

How To Translate Web Pages In Safari

keyboard with blue key reading Translate

The international nature of the internet is one of the best things about it. You can visit web pages and find information from countries all across the world, but this also means it's likely you'll stumble across sites that are written in different languages. It can be a major hassle to translate web pages using third-party software or other means, especially if you don't visit websites outside of your native language very often. 

Fortunately, many modern web browsers possess the ability to translate web pages natively, so you can still read the content in your preferred language. Apple has included a translation feature in its Safari browser, so you can easily translate pages on Mac, as well as the iPhone and iPad. This article covers the translation process on each respective Apple device, as well as how to navigate any hurdles you may encounter.

How to translate web pages in Safari on Mac

To translate a web page in Safari on Mac computers, you need to be using Monterey 12 or Big Sur 11.0 . Also, the page needs to be compatible with the translation feature. Here's how to find out whether you can translate the web page in Safari and how to do it (via Apple ).

1. If Safari can translate the web page, you'll see the "Translate" icon appear in the Smart Search bar at the top of the browser. 

2. Click on the "Translate" button.

3. Select the preferred language you want the page translated into.

4. If prompted, select "Enable Translation."

5. To change it back, select the Translate icon again and click on "View Original."

If you don't see the language you want to translate the page into, try this:

Go to Apple menu > System Preferences.

Select "Language & Region."

Select "General."

Click on "Add" to add a language to your list of preferred languages.

After you add a language, go back to the web page and look at the Translate list again to see if your preferred language has appeared.

How to translate web pages in Safari on iPhone and iPad

The ability to translate web pages is available on devices running iOS 14 or later. You'll also need to be on a web page that is compatible with this feature. Here's how to translate pages in Safari on iPhone or iPad devices with iOS 14 or newer.

If the web page can be translated, you'll see the "Translate" icon flash for a second in the search/address bar at the top.

2. To translate the page, tap on the website options icon, which looks like the letter "A."

3. Tap on "Translate to [Preferred language]."

4. Tap "Enable Translation" if it appears.

5. The page will be translated. To go back to the original language, tap on the website options icon and select "View Original."

If the language offered isn't what you want the web page translated into, you'll have to change your preferred language order in your iPhone settings. Here's how:

Go to the Settings app.

Go to "General" > "Language & Region."

3. Under "Preferred Language Order," either move a language to the top or select "Add Language," choose one, and set it as your top preferred language.

4. Your iPhone will restart to make the change.

Be careful when making this change, as it will change supported apps and websites to your first preferred language.

How to translate web pages in Safari on older versions of iOS

You're not out of luck if you're an iPhone owner using an earlier iOS version than 14. You can also easily translate Safari web pages with the workaround of using an app, such as Microsoft Translator. This app comes with a Safari extension as well, making it a great choice for translation. Here's how to use Microsoft Translator on a Safari webpage (via Microsoft ).

1. On Safari, go to the web page you need translated. 

2. Select the text you want to be translated by tapping and holding it, and then moving the selection bars on the text. 

3. Now tap on the "Share" button that appears in black above the text or the icon at the bottom middle of the Safari menu. 

4. Scroll down and tap on the "Translate" button, which appears if you have Microsoft Translator downloaded. 

5. Choose the source language and the target language to get your translation. 

6. Tap "Done" to close the translator.

This can also be good to use on websites that normally don't provide the translation option, even in iOS 14 or above. 

Can Safari automatically translate web pages?

When you first visit a web page on Safari in a foreign language, it will detect if it can be translated to a different language based on what you have set in your Preferred Languages settings. From there, you'll need to choose to translate it using the instructions above. However, you won't need to do this for every page on the site. Safari will also translate pages on the same domain you originally translated from. 

If you go to a website of a different language or visit a different domain, Safari will then end the automatic translation. Also, if you close the site and then come back to it, it will no longer be translated (via Apple ). So, you'll need to choose to translate web pages yourself every time you visit a website in a foreign language. From there, though, pages within the same domain will be translated automatically.

How To : Translate Webpages in Safari on Your iPhone

Translate Webpages in Safari on Your iPhone

Yes, there's a way for you to get translations of foreign language websites on your iPhone using the built-in Safari app. Problem is, it's not super obvious. Actually, you'd never know the option was there if someone didn't tell you. But with a little setup on your part, you can have Safari translate webpages whenever you need it to.

This hidden feature has actually been around since for a few years now. Apple does not have their own translation service, so they have to rely on a third-party, and in this case, it's Microsoft. That means that you'll have to install an app on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch, running iOS 8 or higher, in order to get this functionality.

  • Don't Miss: 200+ Exciting New iOS 13 Features for iPhone

Step 1: Install a Translation App

There are two options you can choose from if you don't want to pay, and they're both from Microsoft. The rest of the third-party translate apps in the iOS App Store either charge up front or require an in-app purchase to enable their translation services in Safari. And sadly, Google Translate , which has superior translation skills, does not offer a Safari extension.

First, for the free options, there's the Bing search app, which has a built-in feature called Bing Translator that was shown off by Apple back in 2014 when the feature first became available. Then there's Microsoft Translator, which is the backbone to Bing Translator.

Microsoft Translator

Microsoft Translator focuses purely on translating, so you can also use this app to translate speech, text, and photos, and it also includes device-to-device translated conversations. The latter feature is something Google Translate can't do right now.

This app can currently translate 60 different languages into the same amount of other languages, many of which are available for offline translations from the app's internal settings (though, offline translations won't work in Safari).

  • Install Microsoft Translator from the iOS App Store

How to Translate Webpages in Safari on Your iPhone

Bing Translator

Bing Translator only works on webpages, but you get other features in its app such as a new web browser (which you'll probably never user, since you're here for Safari, right?!), a few widgets for today's news and the history for the day, and an interesting UI that looks pretty sleek.

Like Microsoft Translator, you can translate 60 different languages, however, it can only convert them into any of the 44 languages available in the app's internal advanced settings. This is slightly odd since Bing uses the same Microsoft service.

How to Translate Webpages in Safari on Your iPhone

Step 2: Add the Translate Shortcut

In the Safari browser, tap on the share sheet icon in the bottom menu bar, the swipe left on the activities row at the bottom until you see the "More" option. Tap on that, then toggle on your Microsoft Translator and/or Bing Translator. Finally, hit "Done" in the top right, and you'll see the new actions available in the share sheet.

How to Translate Webpages in Safari on Your iPhone

Depending on how often you use this translation shortcut, you can rearrange the icons in the Activities settings to prioritize it so you don't have to swipe left on the bottom row of the share sheet.

Step 3: Choose Your Preferred Language

By default, both of these apps will automatically know which is your preferred language based on your device settings. However, if you'd like to change it, it's pretty simple in both cases.

  • In Microsoft Translator, just tap on the settings cog in the bottom right, choose "Siri Translation Language," then pick your language.
  • In Bing, tap on the menu icon in the top right, select "Settings" -> "Advanced Settings" -> "Translate to," then choose your language.

How to Translate Webpages in Safari on Your iPhone

In addition to this way, in Bing Translator, you can also access the "Translate to" language by tapping on the blue link in the yellow status bar when you have converted a webpage into your preferred language. Of course, you'll have to go back to Safari and re-translate the webpage to see the new language. Microsoft Translator does not offer this option.

Step 4: Translate Webpages

Now, whenever you need to translate a webpage in Safari, just tap on the share sheet icon at the bottom, select either Microsoft Translator or Bing Translator, then sit back and watch the magic happen.

In the example below, you can see a Chinese website that was translated into English by Bing Translator. Notice the blue link for "English," which will open up your language preferences in the Bing app.

How to Translate Webpages in Safari on Your iPhone

In this next example, a Bangla website was translated into English by Microsoft Translator. Notice there is no blue link to access language settings.

Need Automatic Translations?

If you find yourself constantly translating webpages into another language, you might just be better off using Google Chrome instead of Safari because it can automatically translate webpages into your preferred language. It'll prompt you if you want to translate when visiting a webpage not in your device's language, and you can choose to automatically convert the language in future instances.

So, whether you're planning a trip abroad, conducting research for a project, or simply indulging your curiosity, Safari's translation feature is here to make your browsing experience more accessible and enjoyable. Let's dive into the steps and unlock the potential of seamless webpage translation with Safari.

Step 1: Open Safari and Navigate to the Page

To begin the process of translating a webpage on Safari, you'll first need to open the Safari browser on your Apple device. If you're using an iPhone or iPad, simply locate the Safari icon on your home screen or within your app library and tap to open it. For Mac users, you can access Safari from your dock, Launchpad, or by searching for it in Spotlight.

Once Safari is open, the next step is to navigate to the webpage that you wish to translate. You can do this by tapping the address bar at the top of the Safari window and entering the URL of the webpage directly. Alternatively, if you have a bookmark or favorite for the webpage, you can access it by tapping the bookmarks icon and selecting the desired link.

If you're browsing the web and come across a page in a foreign language that you'd like to translate, simply tap on the link to open the webpage. Safari will load the page, and you can proceed to the next step to initiate the translation process.

It's important to ensure that you have a stable internet connection to facilitate the loading of the webpage. A strong and reliable internet connection will not only expedite the process but also ensure a smooth and uninterrupted browsing experience.

As you navigate to the webpage, take a moment to appreciate the wealth of information and diverse content available on the internet. Whether you're accessing a news article, a blog post, or a research paper, the ability to translate web pages on Safari opens up a world of knowledge and perspectives, transcending language barriers and fostering global connectivity.

With Safari's user-friendly interface and seamless navigation capabilities, accessing and exploring web content has never been easier. The intuitive design and smooth performance of Safari contribute to a delightful browsing experience, setting the stage for effortless webpage translation and discovery.

Now that you've successfully opened Safari and navigated to the webpage of interest, you're ready to proceed to the next step and initiate the translation process. Let's delve into the next phase and unlock the power of language translation with Safari.

Step 2: Tap the Share Button

Once you've navigated to the webpage you wish to translate, the next step is to tap the Share button within Safari. The Share button is a versatile tool that allows you to perform various actions related to the webpage, including sharing the link, saving it for later, or, in this case, initiating the translation process.

On an iPhone or iPad, the Share button is typically located at the bottom of the screen, represented by a square icon with an arrow pointing upwards. Tapping this button opens a menu of options for interacting with the webpage. For Mac users, the Share button is located in the Safari toolbar, often depicted as a box with an arrow pointing upwards or as a "Share" label.

Upon tapping the Share button, a menu will appear, presenting a range of actions that you can take with the webpage. Among these options, you'll find the "Translate to English" (or the language of your choice) feature. This functionality is made possible by Safari's integration with the built-in translation capabilities of Apple devices, providing a seamless and efficient method for translating web content.

By selecting the "Translate to English" option, Safari will promptly initiate the translation process, converting the text and content of the webpage into the specified language. This transformation occurs seamlessly within the Safari browser, allowing you to access the translated content without the need for external applications or services.

The Share button serves as a gateway to a multitude of functionalities, empowering users to interact with webpages in diverse and meaningful ways. Whether you're sharing content with friends, saving articles for later reading, or translating webpages into different languages, the Share button is a versatile tool that enhances the browsing experience on Safari.

As you tap the Share button and select the "Translate to English" option, take a moment to appreciate the seamless integration of translation capabilities within Safari. This intuitive and user-friendly approach to webpage translation exemplifies the commitment to accessibility and inclusivity, enabling users to engage with global content in their preferred language.

With the translation process initiated, you're now poised to explore the translated webpage and delve into the wealth of information and insights it offers. As we move forward, the next step will guide you through reviewing the translated page, ensuring that the content is accurately and comprehensively rendered in the desired language. Let's continue our journey through the world of webpage translation with Safari.

Step 3: Select "Translate to English" (or other language)

Upon tapping the Share button and accessing the menu of options within Safari, you'll encounter the transformative feature that enables you to seamlessly translate the webpage into your preferred language. This pivotal step in the translation process exemplifies the user-centric design and intuitive functionality of Safari, empowering you to engage with web content in a language that resonates with you.

As you select the "Translate to English" option (or the language of your choice), Safari swiftly initiates the translation process, harnessing the power of advanced language processing capabilities to convert the textual content of the webpage. The seamless integration of translation functionality within Safari ensures that the process is swift, efficient, and seamlessly woven into your browsing experience.

The ability to select from a range of languages reflects the inclusive and diverse nature of Safari's translation feature. Whether you're fluent in multiple languages, seeking to enhance your language skills, or simply exploring content in a language other than your own, Safari's translation capabilities cater to a broad spectrum of linguistic preferences and needs.

By choosing the "Translate to English" (or other language) option, you unlock a gateway to a world of knowledge, culture, and information that transcends linguistic barriers. The translated webpage presents the content in a format that is accessible and comprehensible, fostering a sense of global connectivity and understanding.

The seamless execution of the translation process underscores Safari's commitment to enhancing the accessibility and inclusivity of web content. Regardless of the language in which the original webpage is written, Safari's translation feature empowers users to engage with diverse perspectives, ideas, and narratives, enriching the browsing experience and broadening horizons.

As the translation unfolds, take a moment to appreciate the transformative power of language and the role it plays in fostering global connections. The ability to select "Translate to English" (or other language) represents a bridge between cultures, ideas, and individuals, encapsulating the spirit of inclusivity and understanding that defines the digital landscape.

With the translation process initiated and the content seamlessly transformed into your preferred language, you're now poised to delve into the translated webpage and explore the wealth of information and insights it offers. The next step will guide you through reviewing the translated page, ensuring that the content is accurately and comprehensively rendered in the desired language. Let's continue our journey through the world of webpage translation with Safari.

Step 4: Review the Translated Page

Upon initiating the translation process and selecting the desired language for the webpage, Safari promptly presents the translated version of the page, allowing you to review the content in a language that resonates with you. This pivotal phase in the translation journey provides an opportunity to ensure that the translated page accurately reflects the original content, enabling you to engage with the information, insights, and narratives presented on the webpage.

As you review the translated page, pay close attention to the accuracy and coherence of the translated text. Safari's advanced language processing capabilities strive to faithfully render the content in the specified language, preserving the essence and meaning of the original text. By meticulously examining the translated page, you can ascertain the fidelity of the translation, ensuring that the nuances and intricacies of the content are effectively conveyed in your preferred language.

In addition to linguistic fidelity, consider the overall layout and formatting of the translated page. Safari endeavors to maintain the visual integrity of the webpage during the translation process, preserving the structure, images, and multimedia elements to provide a seamless and immersive browsing experience. By evaluating the layout and visual presentation of the translated page, you can appreciate the attention to detail and the commitment to delivering a cohesive and engaging browsing experience across languages.

Furthermore, take note of any contextual or cultural references within the translated content. Safari's translation feature aims to capture the essence and cultural nuances embedded in the original text, ensuring that the translated page resonates with the cultural context of the specified language. By acknowledging and appreciating these cultural elements, you can immerse yourself in a rich tapestry of global perspectives and narratives, transcending linguistic boundaries and fostering a deeper understanding of diverse cultures and traditions.

As you review the translated page, embrace the opportunity to engage with the content in a language that speaks to you. Whether you're exploring news articles, educational resources, or creative works, Safari's translation feature empowers you to access a wealth of information and perspectives from around the world. By immersing yourself in the translated content, you embark on a journey of discovery and learning, broadening your horizons and enriching your browsing experience.

With the translated page at your fingertips, you're poised to delve into the diverse and captivating world of web content, transcending linguistic barriers and embracing the global connectivity facilitated by Safari's seamless translation capabilities. As we move forward, the next step will guide you through the process of adjusting translation settings, allowing you to customize the translation experience to suit your preferences. Let's continue our exploration of webpage translation with Safari, unlocking the potential of language accessibility and inclusivity.

Step 5: Adjust Translation Settings (if necessary)

After reviewing the translated page, you may find the need to adjust the translation settings to further enhance your browsing experience. Safari offers a range of customization options that allow you to tailor the translation process to align with your preferences and linguistic needs.

One of the key settings you can adjust is the preferred language for translation. If you initially selected a specific language for translation but wish to explore the content in another language, Safari enables you to seamlessly switch to a different language. By accessing the translation settings, you can select an alternative language, prompting Safari to promptly re-translate the webpage into the newly specified language. This flexibility empowers you to engage with web content in diverse languages, catering to your evolving linguistic interests and exploration.

Additionally, Safari provides the option to enable or disable automatic translation for specific websites. If you frequently visit certain websites that are available in languages other than your preferred language, you can choose to enable automatic translation for those sites. This feature ensures that whenever you revisit the website, Safari automatically translates the content into your specified language, streamlining the browsing experience and eliminating the need to manually initiate the translation process.

Moreover, Safari's translation settings encompass the ability to manage and customize language preferences. You can add or remove languages from the list of preferred languages, allowing you to curate a personalized selection of languages for seamless translation. This level of customization ensures that Safari caters to your multilingual needs, facilitating effortless access to web content in languages that resonate with you.

Furthermore, Safari offers the option to adjust the display of original and translated text simultaneously.

How to Translate Webpages in Safari iPhone?

It is easy to find the content in English language since millions of websites use it as a primary language. Translating is the best option available for you when you are not able to understand the English written content. You can translate a word, phrase, sentence or the entire webpage. Did you any time wonder how you can translate webpage content to your favorite language while reading it on Safari iPhone? Here is how you can add languages in iPhone and translate entire webpage content in Safari to added languages.

Translating Webpages in Safari

Safari browser in iPhone comes with many features and translation is one of the least used among them. This feature was added from iOS 14 and you do not need any third-party extensions for this purpose. However, there are few important things you need to understand for using translation in Safari iPhone.

  • Online – translation feature works only on online.
  • Privacy – the content of the webpage will be sent to Apple for translating.
  • Add target languages – you need to manually add all the required target languages in settings so that they appear in the list for selection in Safari.  

Add Target Language for Translation

Apple automatically includes multiple languages in iOS setup when you buy iPhone in certain countries. For example, you will find both Chinese and English languages are pre-installed when you buy iPhone from China. However, this may not be the case with iPhones sold in USA or UK and probably you will only see English. At any case, you need to add all required languages for the translation to work in Safari.

  • Open Settings app and go to “General” section.
  • Tap on “Language & Region” option and check under “Preferred Languages” heading.

Language and Region Settings in iPhone

  • You will see the current list of languages available and the apps will use the first language in the list as a preferred language.
  • For adding a new language, tap on “Add Language…” link.
  • Select a language from the list and iPhone will prompt you to confirm whether you want to change the preferred language. Choose the new language or tap existing language to use it as your preferred language.

Add Language for Translation in iPhone Settings

If you have added too many languages, tap on “Edit” option on top right corner and delete the language from the list. Whether you add or delete a language, iPhone will restart and update the settings. This will be a quick refresh and you will not see the Apple logo which you will see with normal shut down and restart.

Translating Entire Webpage Content in Safari

Follow the below steps after adding required languages. I will translate a page from English to Chinese as an example.

  • Launch Safari and open the website you want to translate.
  • Tap on the A A icon showing at the left corner of the address bar .
  • Select “Translate to Chinese” as Chinese is the only language available other than English in my case.

Translate Webpage in Safari iPhone

  • Safari will ask your confirmation that the site address and content will be sent to Apple for processing. Confirm the action by pressing “Enable Translation” option.

Enable Translation in Safari

  • Now, you will see the entire webpage content is translated to Chinese. The A A icon in the address bar will show as translation icon indicating the page is translated.

Page Translated to Selected Language

  • For translating back to the original language, tap on the translation icon in the address bar and select “View Original” option.

Translate Page Back to Original

This is a good way to translate the entire webpage in Safari. You can download the translated page offline as a PDF file . For that, tap on Share icon and then “Options” button. Select “PDF” or “Reader PDF” and save the file to your iPhone or iCloud drive.

Save Translated Page as PDF

Translating Words or Phrase

If you want to translate a sentence or words, then tap and select the content. You will see a pop-up toolbar and use the right arrow to find “Translate” option in that toolbar. Tap on “Translate” option to get the translation for the selected content. This also needs internet connection to work.

Translate Selected Portion in Safari

Final Remarks

Remember that machine translations will never have a quality equivalent to human written content. However, the idea is at least you can read the page and grasp the meaning. If you find unacceptable translation, tap on A A icon and select “Report Translation Issue” option. You can report the issue to Apple so that they will improve in future.

If you are not interested in sending data to Apple or using online mode, then you can try the default Translate app. The app allows you to download the language files and use in On-Device Mode (under “Settings > Translate” section) to work offline without internet connection.

Did You Know Siri Could Do This?

S iri was introduced on the iPhone 4S  all the way back in 2011, only four years after the release of the first iPhone. In the dozen or so years since, Apple's digital assistant has made it easier for all of us to complete actions with only our voice.

Whether you're sending a text message while driving, making metric conversions while cooking, or trying to start your white noise app while rocking a crying baby, the hands-free power of Siri can be a huge benefit.

Apple's own documentation of the things Siri can do for you is brief and doesn't cover nearly all of the possible iPhone actions you can achieve with voice commands. For example, did you know you can now restart your iPhone with only your voice ?

If you want to learn more about what you can do on your iPhone with just your voice, check out these nine hidden Siri voice commands.

For more about Siri and the iPhone, check out the coolest new features in iOS 17 and how you can replace Siri with Amazon Alexa on your iPhone home screen .

No more 'Hey, Siri' needed

As long as you're running iOS 17, you no longer need to say "Hey, Siri" to activate Siri on your iPhone. All you need to do is say "Siri," and your iPhone will begin listening for any voice commands you tell it. For example, you can just say  "Siri, set an alarm for 8 a.m. this coming Thursday" -- no "Hey" needed.

Have Siri read an article in Safari to you

Another addition is the ability to have Siri read you any article, short story or other webpage -- as long as it's compatible with the Reader View feature. If you're unsure whether Reader View works on a webpage, tap the AA icon on the top left and make sure that the Show Reader setting isn't grayed out.

To have Siri read a Safari webpage to you, say something like "Siri, read this to me" or "Siri, I want to listen to this page." If you tap the new Listen to Page icon on the top left, you can change Siri's speaking rate so that the voice assistant speaks faster or slower.

Quickly find saved passwords for websites and apps

Apple lets you save your usernames and passwords across all your Apple devices, including your iPhone, through the iCloud Keychain. In iOS, you can go to Settings > Passwords to view your saved passwords for your Apple ID, websites and applications -- but you can access them quicker with Siri.

All you need to do is ask Siri  "Show me the password for (app/website)" and you'll be automatically redirected to that specific password page in your settings. Before you can view the password, you'll need to use Face ID or Touch ID to gain access. From there, you can copy the username or password to your clipboard.

Restart your iPhone

If you're experiencing a software issue, like an application continuously force-closing or a laggy operating system, you can often fix the problem with a quick restart of your iPhone. All you need to do is press down the home button, plus either volume button for about a second and then slide to power off your device -- but there's an easier way to reboot.

Don't miss :  Your iPhone Has a New Siri Voice Command You'll Want to Know About

You can tell Siri "Restart my phone" and then say "Yes" when prompted to restart your device, without using your hands.

Turn off an annoying alarm

Your alarm is going off, but you're either not near your iPhone or maybe you just can't find it because it's underneath your sheets or lost in your couch cushions. An iPhone alarm will persist for 15 minutes if you don't cancel or snooze it, but there is a way to stop it with just your voice.

Even if your alarm is blaring loudly, you can tell Siri  "Turn off my alarm" to silence it. In fact, you can even just say "Hey, Siri" and that will also stop your alarm from ringing. Unlike the snooze feature, using either Siri command will permanently turn off the alarm.

Find family or friends using the Find My tool

The Find My feature allows you to track not only your Apple devices but also those of your friends, family and loved ones. If you're tracking someone's location via Find My, like your significant other or your sibling, you can use Siri to quickly check where they're at.

Ask Siri  "Where is (contact name)?" and a small Find My window will appear at the top of the screen, showing you exactly where the person is. Siri will also announce how far they are and the approximate address of their location. If you tap the Find My window, you'll be redirected to the Find My app, where you can contact the person, get directions to their location and more.

Translate foreign words or sentences

Besides the stand-alone app, Apple's Translate feature is built into your iPhone, allowing you to quickly translate languages from pretty much anywhere on your device, including within your text messages, in your web browser and with Siri.

You can ask Siri to translate a single word or entire sentences with just your voice. For example, you can say  "Translate 'My head hurts. I think I'm going to sleep' in Spanish" and Siri will read out your sentence in the original language and then in the translated language. If you want to hear the translation again, you can hit the play button in the Translate window.

Currently, 17 languages, including Spanish and Chinese, are supported with Translate, but not all of them can be used with Siri.

Set reminders based on your location

The Reminders app on your iPhone is a powerful productivity tool to help you remember what you need to do throughout the day, like make a phone call, send an email or make a purchase online. But you don't need to be reminded of everything on your to-do list at all times, which is why you can use Siri to create a reminder notification based on your location.

For example, if you want to be reminded that you need to pay your internet bill when you get home, tell Siri  "Remind me to pay my internet bill when I get home" and a reminder will be created. The next time you arrive home (which you can set in Contacts or Maps), the reminder should pop up on your phone. Besides work and home, you can set your location to somewhere like Target or a local park, but Siri will need you to verify the exact address.

Get directions back to your parked car

Parked at an airport and lost track of your car? It can be difficult to find your way back to your car, especially if you didn't make a mental note and you're in a large parking lot or garage with hundreds of other vehicles. Fortunately, your iPhone usually knows where you parked your car -- all you need to do is ask Siri.

Say "Get me directions to my car" and Siri will open the Maps application and get you walking directions to where it thinks your car is parked. Your iPhone tracks which other devices it's connected to, like your car stereo, as well as your traveling speed, to estimate where your car is parked.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — With flashy celebrity ads and promises of deep discounts, a shop in Iran’s capital had offered consumers in the Islamic Republic one of the hottest products in the country — an iPhone that came out in 2021.

But instead of getting their hands on the handsets, police and prosecutors in Iran allege customers found themselves ensnared by a business owner running a multimillion-dollar Ponzi scheme.

Yet the controversy surrounding the Kourosh, or “Son of the Sun,” Company extends far beyond just the alleged scheme.

A cellphone vendor waits for customer as he stands outside his shop in downtown Tehran, Iran, Wednesday, Feb. 21, 2024. Even though Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has denounced American luxury goods amid years of tensions with the West, consumers still want the phones and the prestige associated with them. (AP Photo/Vahid Salemi)

It’s a sign of the economic woes plaguing Iran after decades of Western sanctions, now accelerating as Tehran rapidly advances its nuclear program, helps arm Russia in Moscow’s war on Ukraine, steps up support for proxy militias in the Middle East and violently cracks down on dissent ahead of parliamentary elections on Friday.

When the government last year banned Apple’s iPhone 14 and 15 from the Islamic Republic, the ban spurred a parallel economy for the older handsets, jacking up prices for the devices as many sought to put their depreciating Iranian rials into any physical commodity.

And even though Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has denounced American luxury goods amid years of tensions with the West, consumers still want the phones and the prestige associated with them.

“There is a lot of demand,” said Aram, a mobile phone shop keeper in Tehran who gave only her first name for fear of retaliation. Her customers keep asking for the “latest couple of iPhone models” — the ones that are banned.

“If they could allow legal imports … it would be much better,” she said.

In shops across Iran, iPhone 13s range in price starting from $330 for refurbished models to $1,020 for those still in the box — shiny and new, though still not quite the coveted iPhone 15 now available elsewhere in the world.

Even if you bring an iPhone 14 or 15 model into the country, it will stop working on the Iran’s state-controlled mobile phone networks after one month, the time span for tourists who visit the county.

Imports of iPhones have long been a contentious point — government statistics suggest that about a third of Iran’s entire $4.4 billion mobile phone import market consisted of iPhones before the ban.

The private companies that import mobile phones have access to government-set exchange rates far lower than the rate of 580,000 rials to $1 in exchange offices, making the business that much more lucrative.

At the time of Iran’s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, the exchange rate was 32,000 rials for $1.

Khamenei pointedly criticized the iPhone imports in remarks to government ministers in August 2020.

“Excessive imports are something dangerous,” Khamenei said at the time, according to a transcript on his official website. “Sometimes this import is a luxury product, meaning there is no need for it. I’ve heard about half a billion dollars were spent to import one type of American luxury cellphone.”

But the demand is still there and iPhones remain a status symbol for many young Iranians.

“I prefer the iPhone to any other phone, at any price, because it cannot be compared to any other brand in terms of luxury,” said Ehsan Ehsani, a 23-year-old architecture student in Tehran.

Rules on importing iPhones into Iran were always tough.

The phones could only be brought in individually by travelers, who would then register them at the country’s entry point, declaring the iPhone was for personal use. At customs, people would give their passport numbers and pay a fee of 22.5% of the phone’s price, as determined by the government or possibly a sales receipt.

This sparked a side business where iPhone traders would wait for passengers at the airport and pay them in exchange for getting their permission to use their passport numbers to register iPhones in their stock.

Navid Bahmani, a 26-year-old who works in an iPhone shop in Tehran, said he would usually pay travelers up to $40 for their passport numbers at Tehran’s Imam Khomeini International Airport.

“The price depends on the travelers,” Bahmani said. “Some of them accept the first offer, some of them not.”

Apple, based in Cupertino, California, did not respond to a request for comment.

Iran’s economic problems have also played into schemes such as that of Kourosh, curiously also the name of the Persian throne under Cyrus the Great.

Inflation has overtaken any interest rate offered by a bank, while depreciation also has gnawed away at people’s savings. As a result, many seek to buy a physical asset, whether a home, jewelry or even a car to protect against losses.

That’s where the Kourosh Company came in.

The company offered iPhone 13s starting from the equivalent of $360 — if you were willing to pay first and wait for a few weeks before receiving the device. Celebrities in Iran appeared in online ads for the firm, drawing even more attention.

Some customers initially received their iPhones, further fueling the frenzy surrounding the shop. The reformist newspaper Shargh estimated that the company made $36 million in less than a year, though officials have not confirmed that.

Then the iPhones dried up.

Kourosh’s 27-year-old CEO and the alleged mastermind of the scheme, Amirhossein Sharifian, suddenly left Iran in September — and is still on the run — with millions in dollars of payments, Iranian authorities say.

Sharifian could not be reached by The Associated Press for comment, though a company employee insisted in an online video posted two weeks ago that a supply chain issues was causing the delay in iPhone deliveries.

Iranian police spokesman Gen. Saeed Montazeralmehdi said investigators are still after Sharifian.

Despite the fracas, customers keep lining up outside the shop, including on a recent below-freezing day in Tehran.

“I paid for nine (iPhones),” said Moteza Zarei, 47, who runs a car repair shop. “I found it a good way to increase my investment. But I got none.”

Associated Press journalists Amir Vahdat and Mehdi Fattahi in Tehran, Iran, contributed to this report.

How to clear Safari browsing history on iPhone and iPad

Clear Safari browsing history on iPhone and iPad in a few simple steps

iPhone screen showing the Safari app icon in the center

You'll definitely want to know how to clear Safari browsing history on iPhone and iPad . Know how to delete browsing history is part of basic user operation on all your devices, and is especially if you share devices with others. 

Luckily, deleting browsing history on Safari is easy and can be done in just a few taps, and is the same on iOS and iPadOS, so whether you're using an iPhone 15 Pro or an iPad Air , these steps will apply.

Remember, though, that deleting your browsing history only stops your activity being visible on that device. Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) will still be able to see the webpages you have visited. If you want to stop that, for ultimate privacy, you'll need to use one of the best VPN services .

The following screenshots were taken on an iPhone running iOS 17 . If you aren't running the latest version of your device's OS, we can show you how to update an iPhone or how to update an iPad .

  • In Safari, tap the book icon
  • Go to the history tab (clock)
  • Select how far back to clear

Read on to see full illustrated instructions.

1. In Safari, tap the book icon

Firstly, open Safari and tap the book icon in the bottom bar.

2. Select the history tab (clock icon) and tap Clear

Now select the history tab (clock icon) and tap Clear at the bottom.

3. Select how far back to clear and tap Delete

Now choose how far back you'd like to delete : last hour, today, today and yesterday, or all time.

If you like, you can toggle on Close All Tabs , which will close every open tab that isn't in a tab group (we can show you how to use tab groups if you aren't sure).

Finally, when you're happy, hit Delete .

As you can see in the screenshot above, if you now go back to the history tab, your history will have been deleted.

Explore Galaxy AI on Try Galaxy App, Now Available to Samsung Galaxy Users

The era of mobile AI has come, and early adopters are already riding the waves of the latest innovation. To fuel the conversation, Samsung has made significant updates to the Try Galaxy app to offer Live Translate, Chat Assist, Note Assist, Photo Assist and Circle to Search with Google — so that those still on the fence can experience Galaxy AI without changing phones.

Previously tailored to iOS users, the Try Galaxy app is now available on all Android devices including Galaxy 1 models for the first time. This means more users can explore the latest features of the Galaxy S24 series and One UI 6.1.

All things considered, it may be high time to give Try Galaxy… a try.

What’s New: Explore Galaxy AI Through Widgets and Tutorials

The updated Try Galaxy app simulates the experience of looking at an actual Galaxy S24 home screen. Once users are in the app, tutorials and interactive content help them navigate the latest interface.

The new widget on the second page of the home screen introduces the core AI-powered features of the Galaxy S24 series and its advanced camera tools. Users can tap each item to watch short demonstration videos explaining the features and how they’re applied in daily life. Check marks appear next to the completed items so users can track their progress.

Below is an overview of the new AI features spotlighted in the widget:

  • Live Translate: Communicate without language barriers using the real-time, two-way call translation feature built into the native app. Effortlessly get in touch with a ride-share driver or make a restaurant reservation in a foreign country with voice and text translations of phone calls, supported in 13 languages. 2
  • Note Assist: Take notes as usual, but now receive instant AI-generated summaries to help streamline and organize notes. Turn dense paragraphs into bullet points with headers for easy review. The feature allows for automatic formatting, spell check and translations.

  • Chat Assist: Refine the tone of any text message for the occasion, ranging from professional to casual. Send polished meeting agendas to the boss, and chat with international friends in Spanish. The AI built into the Samsung Keyboard can also translate messages in real-time in 13 languages 2 so that users can communicate better across cultural and language barriers.
  • Photo Assist: Get the perfect shot with the help of Generative Edit, an AI tool that allows users to resize, reposition or even remove objects within photos. Tweak the composition of a photo in an instant with Edit Suggestion. Use the Erase Reflection tool to automatically remove unwanted shadows and light reflections.
  • Circle to Search with Google : With a circling gesture, search for anything displayed on screen without switching apps. When users spot something they like in a social media post, they can simply long-press the home button and draw a circle around the image to get instant and helpful search results about the coveted item. Depending on the location, generative AI-powered overviews will be provided.

In addition to the AI features, the widget sheds light on the Galaxy S24 series’ advanced camera tools. Through immersive tutorial videos shot from first-person perspective, users can learn how to take clear, bright photos at night from far away using Nightography Zoom, record steady videos of subjects moving at high speed with the Super Steady feature and shoot impressive portraits and selfies in Portrait mode.

Other Updates and Availability

While on the app, users can also check out the new Galaxy Themes or background images beyond Wallpapers, offered on the Galaxy S24 Ultra. As a bonus, three types of Art Wallpapers including graffiti and pop art are available for download.

To learn more about the Galaxy ecosystem, users can swipe through informative cards introducing features such as seamless multi-device connectivity, file-sharing capabilities and body composition data available through Samsung Health. For a quick intro to the latest foldable experience, users can watch introductory videos showcasing the Galaxy Z Flip5 and Z Fold5.

The Try Galaxy app currently supports 20 languages 3 encompassing 120 countries and has amassed over 18 million cumulative downloads since its launch in 2022. Download the updated app by simply scanning a QR code or visit trygalaxy.com .

1 The Try Galaxy app is available on supported Android OS smartphones with the latest version of Chrome, but may not be perfectly optimized depending on device model, setting, screen size, etc. The app runs on Safari, on iPhone 7 and above with iOS 14 or higher. 2 Supported languages include Chinese, English, French, German, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Thai and Vietnamese. 3 The app is supported in Arabic, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Czech, English, French (FR/CA), German, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Latin American Spanish, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish and Vietnamese.
