- While Samsung phones give you a ton of features to overcome language barriers, Apple phones don't yet support them through a public API — that's why there's no WhatsApp integration (on iOS).
- If you have a Samsung phone — Use WhatsApp Calls Live Translate
- (For models like Galaxy S22/S23/S24/S25, Z Fold/Flip series, Tab S8–S10)
