News & Reviews:   live translation

Apple has officially released iOS 26.1 for compatible iPhone models, introducing refinements and new settings focused on improving user control, accessibility, and device integration. The update adds the new “Liquid Glass” toggle, lets users disable the Lock Screen swipe-to-open Camera gesture, expands language support for Apple Intelligence and AirPods Live Translation, and includes several smaller usability upgrades.

According to recent discoveries in iOS 26 beta 6, Apple appears to be preparing a Live Translation feature for AirPods. The beta code includes imagery labelled “Translate” showing AirPods alongside greetings like “Hello” in multiple languages, and suggests activation via a double-press gesture on the stems.

If you like watching videos in other languages on YouTube, this bit of news could be interesting for you. Xiaomi has been working on a feature called Xiaoai, which will be released next month. This is basically a live translation that will be added to MIUI 12.5.
