How to translate webpages in Safari in iOS 13
Safari translation was introduced with iOS 14. If your iPhone is running iOS 13, you will have to use a third-party language translator app to translate Safari webpages. I have used Microsoft Translator to illustrate the below method. If you do not see the ‘Translator’ option in the Share Sheet, tap Edit Actions, scroll down and tap the green plus icon for Translator. Also, toggle it on. Finally, tap Done at the top right. Now, you will see the option to translate in the Share Sheet.
Translate a webpage into a different language in iOS 13
By default, Microsoft Translator translates the page to English. But what if you are a native French reader who stumbles across a Hindi website? Well, you can change the language of translation inside the app. To go back and see the webpage in its original untranslated language, tap the page refresh icon from the top right. The website will reload in its native language. There you go! This is how you can translate Safari webpages on iPhone to your preferred language. You can also use Google Lens on your Mac to translate text from images. Got more questions? Share them in the comments below. Read next:
