Apple Reportedly Developing Live Translation for AirPods

The feature, tied to iOS 19, is expected to streamline multilingual conversations through AirPods and iPhones later this year.

Apple is reportedly working on a live translation feature for AirPods, according to Bloomberg, with plans to release it through a software update later in 2025.
The feature will integrate with the iPhone's Translate app, enabling real-time translation of spoken conversations between two languages.
Users will hear translated speech through their AirPods, while the iPhone will play the user's translated response aloud for the other person.
This functionality will be tied to the upcoming iOS 19 update, which is also expected to include a major design overhaul for Apple's operating systems.
While Google and other companies have offered similar features in their earbuds for years, Apple's implementation aims to simplify the process for existing AirPods users.
