The upcoming update for Microsoft Translator for iPhone and Apple Watch will offer several new features. A recent or pinned translation can be played back later through the watch speaker. Also, the watch face will automatically show you common phrases like “good morning” and “goodbye” in the local language based on your location and the time of day. Using Time Travel, you can see phrases for a later time, like “good night.” This makes it easier to communicate when traveling.

With the Apple Watch update:

  • Complications will automatically display common phrases like “good morning” and “goodbye” on the watch face in the local language when you’re abroad. The phrases are based on your location and the time of day.
  • Play back a recent or pinned translation through the watch speaker — no need to pull out your phone. This lets you have your translated words and phrases at the ready when you need them.
  • The new “Time Travel” feature lets you see phrases for a later time of day to make it easier to communicate — for instance, learn how to say “good night” in the local language before dinner so you’re ready to say it when you leave.
