Skype Translator Preview

Microsoft today released an update for Skype Translator preview in Windows Store. Updates in this preview release is to streamline interactions between participants, so you can have a more natural conversation using Skype Translator. Some new features added in this release include Continuous recognition, auto volume control and more. Find the full change log below.

Change log:

  • Text to speech translation: You now have the option to hear the instant messages people send to you – in the language of your choice
  • Continuous recognition – Recognized text translation as your partner is speaking
  • Automatic volume control: Your partner can speak while the translation is still happening. You will hear the translation at full volume, and your partner at a lower volume, so that you can follow the translation, which will help make conversations more fluid.
  • Mute option for translated voice: There is now an option to easily turn the translated audio on or off if you would prefer to only read the transcript.

Download it here from Windows Store for free.
