Instagram has announced a new option that automatically translates the texts found in Stories.

The new service detects a foreign language in a Story and displays a “See Translation” option. Users just need to tap it (below the user’s name), and a translation will pop up (at the bottom).

When you’re watching a story with text, you’ll get a ‘See Translation’ notice if your set language is different than the one in the story.

Just tap it and a translation will pop up 🌼

According to Instagram, the new translation feature will be available globally, and it currently supports over 90 languages to make sharing content with an international audience easier.
