Google Translate is often a lifesaver, which can also save you expensive translation costs, although you sometimes have to be careful that Google understands the context. The tool has gotten a little better now, or actually Gboard has gotten a lot better, because it can automatically switch Gboard’s language when it sees you’re translating something.
Virtual Keyboard Gboard
Being able to recognize a translation action yourself ensures that you no longer have to switch from the standard keyboard of your phone, which -especially if you don’t do it often- takes some effort to find in the menus of Android.
A new update to Google Translate adds the ability for Gboard on Android to automatically change the language when you enter text in a language other than your default. Suppose Dutch is your preferred language in Gboard language: if you then select something from Arabic in Google Translate in the ‘Translate from’ language, Gboard will automatically switch to the Arabic keyboard as soon as you open the text field to start typing.

If you then select a different language, Gboard will automatically change to that language. Don’t worry, you won’t have to type in Arabic or Japanese for the rest of your life: as soon as you turn off the translation screen. it will go back to your default language. In the past you had to go to the globe to the left of the space bar or even completely in the Gboard settings. That is no longer necessary.
You do need the new version of Google Translate for this, namely version 6.33 in combination with the stable version of Gboard. By the way, don’t be shocked when you see the new Google Translate, because recently the Material You restyle has just appeared for non-Pixel smartphones. Yet there is still a lot to be desired, because with the announcement of Pixel 6, Google blew high about direct translation and we have not seen much of that to date.
