Auto tranalate not working Brave browser for Android.
How can this issue be reproduced?
Go to a website that is written in a language that is not the default language.
Page is not tranalating
Expected result:
There would be a button to tranalate the page
Brave 1.76.74, Chromium 134.0.6998.89
Android 14; Build/UP1A.231005.007
Additional Information:
In my particular case I was trying to translate a Russian website to english and I would have to select batches of text and then click translate. I would assume that the translation was taking place through Android and Brave was not handling the translation. When I check under app languages Brave is not listed there, when I check under language packs I Russian is there as I had to download it to be able to select parts of written text and translate like that for each page I was on. Thats why I am guessing that translation wasnt happening within Brave and was being done by the OS. I could be wrong on that point but that is just my guess. Either way it was painfully slow with that method and I thought that there is an auto translate for mobile. I know there is on the desktop versions. I did try to search on here for some answers and I found some people asking but the post expired so there was no one that answered.
I would assume that probably happens a lot as people ask something and dont immediately get back to someone after they respond. I am also guilty of this sometimes but I still would like to figure out whatever it is I am asking.
So there is no translate for android?
Sorry your having the same issue.
Well i hope we get a response here to figure it out, but i have a feeling there isnt a translate feature on mobile
I cant say that i have ever seen it on the mobile version but i knkw its there on desktop. Thats why when i went to use it on mobile i was surprised there was nothing. Not to mention i also did a search for auto translate on mobile and found people talking about the feature being implemented and after that i read that the feature came to the mobile version. I didnt read much passed that or look much more into it as it seems that its something that should already be there.
I do have a translate button when touching the menu below to the right (3 dots). However, since last update the translation fails with a message stating it couldn’t translate the page. Nevertheless those same pages could be translated with last version before update.
SOLUTION: I found out the problem. I push the Community-link on startpage of browser. While it is in English and I am German speaker it (Brave) recommended me to translate from English to German, and now the Translate-option is in address bar and also in settings menu again.
