11:00 a.m. Real-time translation features in Kyoto, a global city.
When you think of Kyoto, the charming scenery of its back alleys is an essential part of the experience. While these alleys may be a familiar, everyday sight for locals, they have remained unchanged since ancient times and continue to captivate travelers. In this quintessentially Kyoto-like corner, you can spot the occasional foreign tourist here and there.
While I was walking, a foreign tourist approached me and said, “Excuse me.” But there’s no need to panic. Just open the “Meta AI” app on your smartphone, turn on the live translation feature, and then you’re ready to have a conversation.
The live translation screen of the “Meta AI” app displayed on a smartphone. It translates in real time.
It translates conversations between English and Japanese in real time, displaying the words on your smartphone screen. It supports not only English but also multiple languages, such as Spanish and Chinese. It’s sure to be a reliable ally not only when conversing with international travelers but also when you’re traveling abroad yourself.
