Instagram to offer automatic translation of captions and profiles

In the coming month, Instagram plans to make it easier for you to understand captions on images that aren’t in English. The photo sharing service plans to automatically translate captions and profiles in your preferred language or the one set as default on your device. We believe the translate button will look rather similar to the one we see on Facebook, Instagram’s parent company. Offering this feature is necessary for the service as 80 percent of Instagram users live outside of the U.S. This will also help with discoverability on the service and bring more users together even if they don’t necessarily speak the same language. Instagram didn’t say yet how many languages will be supported when the feature rolls out.
