Google Translate will stop translating SMS on our mobile

So far, the Google translator application lets us translate the text messages we receive on our Android mobile. However, this function has its days numbered. As revealed by AndroidPolice, the next app update will not allow automatic SMS translation. Otherwise, Google encourages users to switch to Tap to Translate as an alternative. It makes sense as it doesn't require switching from one app to another.Plus, it works from any app.

The ability to translate any text message from Google Translate is a feature that has been available for some time. Once we have entered the Translator, it is necessary to go to Menu (three horizontal lines in the upper left corner) and then go to the SMS Translation function. Google Translate loads everyone on the platform the text messages that we have stored in the mobile. Basically, they are shown in a list so that we can choose the one we want to translate.

Don't worry, as we say, this feature may be gone, but Google encourages users to switch to Tap to Translate as an alternative. Instead of switching from one application to another to perform a translation, you will simply have to copy the text of a message and make use of the floating interface to do the same job.Tap to Translate came along with Google Translate 5.0 Not only allows you to translate text messages, but also any type of text. You just have to copy it and a floating window will appear with the translator and the text placed in it. You will instantly have the translation in the language you are looking for.

If the size of the text is very large, you can click on the three vertically aligned buttons to open the Google translator, as long as you have it installed on your terminal. You can place the floating button with the Google logo anywhere on the screen so that it always appears in the same area. Tap to Translate does not require configuration to function. Once installed, you'll be up and running quickly.
