YouTube Music is translating lyrics in real-time
Technology
YouTube Music is trying out a new feature that lets you translate song lyrics as you listen.
Just tap the "Translate" button, and you'll see translated lines appear right under the originals—no extra apps needed.
Right now, it's only available to a small group of Premium users, and translations match your device or app language automatically.
Translations use Google's machine translation technology
These translations use Google's machine translation technology to help break down language barriers in music.
But there's no way to pick your own language yet—it just follows your system settings—which might not always get slang or local phrases quite right.
This update is part of YouTube Music's push to make lyrics more interactive and accessible for everyone.
