I tried asking Siri to open, Translate, before I posted, and Siri informed me that I didn't have an app by that name installed...
So, I did a search for, Translate in iOS 14.2, and got the results stating that Translate was a feature in Safari! LOL LOL Well, I just asked Siri to open, Translate, and this time it did open. I guess i wasn't clear in my enunciation the first time. Take care and stay safe. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go Rams!

Try asking Siri to open Translate. If it isn't there, it may be buried in the app library, or you can download it I'm sure.

It defaults to from English to Spanish. There is a listen button about an inch and a half up from the home button, if you have a home button. Double tap that listen button, say what you want translated, then flick twice to the right passed the close button to finished listening and double tap. Then, after a very short time, it says in Spanish what you said in English, but says it so fast even if I understood Spanish, I am not sure I could get it. But, there is a play button that shows up then that plays the Spanish at a more reasonable speed. There does not seem to be a setting for speed at all. I have not tried typing, but I suspect if you type, there is also the button to translate, then you may hear or be able to read the other language. It does also show the text of the Spanish, so it could kind of be used to teach oneself some useful phrases I think.

I assume I would type the word or phrase in the editfield and then it would either speak or show the translation, but nothing happened. Has anyone else tried it out yet?
