Looking beyond one billion installs, we’re looking forward to continually improving translation quality and user experiences, supporting more languages and helping everyone communicate, every day.

Our mission is to enable everyone, everywhere to understand the world and express themselves across languages. Whenever you type a word, sentence or phrase in english - we send API requests to either Google or Microsoft for a translation. As we celebrate this milestone and all our users whose experiences make the work meaningful, we also celebrate our engineers who build with care, our designers who fret over every pixel and our product team who bring focus. During this time, we improved the accuracy and increased the number of supported languages for offline translation.Īside from these features, our engineering team has spent countless hours on bringing our users a simple-to-use experience on a stable app, keeping up with platform needs and rigorously testing changes before they launch. We partnered with the Pixel Buds team to offer streaming speech translations on top of our Transcribe feature, for more natural conversations between people speaking different languages. Transcribe, our long-form speech translation feature, launched when we reached 850 million installs.
