Microsoft SwiftKey 's Android smart keyboard which uses the Microsoft Translator technology artificial intelligence to translate text into more than 60 languages, is now integrated with SwiftKey 's Android smart keyboard .

“We wanted to make it so easy for users to translate both incoming messages and text that they type themselves, ” says Colleen Hall, senior product manager for SwiftKey from the London division. Microsofta cquired SwiftKey in 2016.

Hall noted that the real-time translation feature is especially convenient for exchanging messages with relatives, friends and colleagues speaking different languages. As soon as the user taps the Microsoft Translator icon on the SwiftKey keyboard , the application will begin to translate the text as it is entered, and also to translate the incoming messages that the user will copy.

"To translate the text, now no need to exit the keyboard application, ”Hall explained.

The application remembers the user's preferences, eliminating the need to scroll through the full list of more than 60 available languages ​​each time the translation function is turned on, and choose which language to translate into which language.

SwiftKey users who have also downloaded the Microsoft Translator application have the option to translate offline, which allows, for example, to translate emails during trips abroad.

Microsoft Translator is part of the Azure Cognitive Services cognitive services , which are a set of artificial intelligence algorithms. At the moment, the translation feature is available to SwiftKey users on Android devices .

“We have always strived to make our applications available in many languages, ” Hall says, “and now the Translator helps us in this .”
