Have you ever been in a conversation with someone and not understood a word they were saying? Now it's a thing of the past! WhatsApp has launched a new feature called Message Translations, which allows you to translate text messages directly in chats. It works in private chats, groups, and channels. To use the translation, just press and hold on a message, select Translate, and specify the language you want to translate from or to. You can also save the translation for later use.
WhatsApp has introduced Writing Help, a new AI tool that allows you to reword, edit, or change the tone of your message directly in WhatsApp. It's a perfect tool for people who have trouble formulating complex sentences. Parents' chats and porch chats should become like literary evenings.
