Key points
- Call Assist, Note Assist, Interpreter and Transcript Assist add Hungarian and Malay, for 24 languages

AI features are only useful if they work in your language. Samsung is expanding the languages supported by Galaxy AI and its Bixby assistant, and the update matters most for people who translate calls and conversations.
What's changing
Translation and transcription tools. Samsung's tools that translate, transcribe and summarize are adding Hungarian and Malay:
- Call Assist, including Live Translate for phone calls,
- Note Assist,
- Interpreter, for face-to-face conversations,
- Transcript Assist.
That brings Live Translate and its siblings to 24 languages.
Now Nudge. This feature suggests a relevant next step based on what's on your screen. It adds eight languages (Dutch, Filipino, Gujarati, Hungarian, Malay, Romanian, Swedish and Turkish) and also reaches 24.
Bixby. Samsung's device agent, which lets you change settings by describing what you want in your own words, adds Polish, Thai and Vietnamese, for 12 languages in total.
When you'll get it
| Feature | Rollout |
|---|---|
| Bixby's new languages | From October 14 |
| Galaxy AI's new languages | In the coming weeks |
Some of the new Galaxy AI languages are downloaded as language packs from the Settings app, and availability can vary by device and country. Bixby requires a Samsung account and a data connection.
The full list
Galaxy AI's 24 languages are: Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, Filipino, French, German, Gujarati, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish and Vietnamese. Several, such as English and Spanish, cover multiple regional variants.
Why it matters
Live translation is one of the AI features people use in real life: on the phone with a landlord abroad, at a pharmacy, with relatives. Each new language opens it to millions more people. Google is also pushing multilingual voice: its new Gemini 3.8 Live switches between 97 languages mid-conversation.
