Imagine watching your favorite Instagram or Facebook Reels — but this time, they speak your language! Meta, the corporation behind Facebook and Instagram, has added a brand-new feature that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to translate and dub Reels into different languages. That means you can enjoy videos made any place in the world — even if they were not made in your verbal!
A World without Language Barriers
This new AI-powered tool helps people understand and enjoy videos from other nations. Meta first introduced the feature in August and it is now existing in English, Spanish, Hindi, and Portuguese. More languages will be added soon so even more people can join the fun.
Meta says this update will help creators reach fans in new countries and allow everyone to enjoy global content easily. The best part? The translation feature is completely free and works smoothly inside the Reels app — no extra steps wanted!
How Does the Translation Work?
Here’s how it happens: Meta’s AI listens to the video, translates the dialogue into another language, and then dubs it using a voice that sounds like the original creator. It even matches the person’s tone and emotion, so it feels actual!
To make it look even more natural, the AI also lip-syncs the person’s mouth actions with the translated words — so when they speak in Hindi or Portuguese, it looks like they’re really saying it!
See What’s Translated
When you watch a translated Reel, you’ll see a small label that says “Translated with Meta AI.” This tells viewers that AI helped create the translation. If you want, you can turn off translations anytime. Just tap the three-dot menu, go to audio and language settings, and click on “Don’t translate.”
Safe and Clear for Everyone
Meta has made sure both creators and spectators know when AI is being used. The dubbing feature includes clear labels and gives persons the choice to use or skip it. For now, it’s existing to creators with more than 1,000 followers and public accounts in supported regions.
With this smart new update, Meta is breaking down language walls and connecting people everywhere — one Reel at a time!
