One of the many new software features Google has delivered on its Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro is the ability for voice typing in Gboard to recognize multiple languages, being able to switch between them on the fly. “Soon,” multilingual voice typing will also arrive on the Google Pixel 7 series, too.
Multilingual voice typing was announced with the Pixel 8 series with Google noting that the language in use would show the difference. While I’m not a multilingual speaker, an in-person demo Google showed to 9to5Google was pretty seamless and impressive.
Google has now confirmed that the feature will make its way to older devices to. On a support page Google directly notes that multilingual voice typing on Gboard will come to the Pixel 7 “soon.”
The updated support page was spotted by the folks over at Android Police, but there’s unfortunately no word on just how “soon” this could arrive. Also notable, Google makes no direct mention of this feature coming to Pixel 7a and Pixel Fold, but it seems reasonable to expect at least the latter to add support.
