Apple's AirPods Live Translation Delayed in EU Due to Regulations
2025-09-12

Apple's upcoming Live Translation feature for AirPods will be unavailable to EU users initially due to stringent EU regulations. The EU's Artificial Intelligence Act and GDPR impose strict requirements on speech and translation services, requiring Apple to ensure full compliance before enabling the feature for EU accounts. The feature, supporting English, French, German, Portuguese (Brazil), and Spanish, will add more languages later this year. The rollout date for EU users remains unclear.
