Broadening Galaxy AI Language Capabilities
Samsung has announced a major expansion of language support across its AI experiences on Galaxy devices. According to the <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-expands-language-support-across-ai-experiences-on-galaxy">Samsung Global Newsroom</a>, the company is updating its mobile offerings to bring these technologies to more users in their own language, focusing heavily on features designed to translate, transcribe, and summarize communications.
As part of this update, features such as Call Assist, Note Assist, Interpreter, and Transcript Assist have added support for Hungarian and Malay. This expansion brings popular capabilities like Live Translate to a total of 24 supported languages, enhancing cross-lingual communication for a wider global audience using <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/tag/galaxy-ai">Galaxy AI</a>.
Enhancements to Now Nudge
In addition to translation and transcription updates, Samsung is expanding the capabilities of Now Nudge, a feature designed to suggest relevant next steps based on what is currently displayed on the device screen.
With the latest software updates, Now Nudge has added eight new languages: Dutch, Filipino, Gujarati, Hungarian, Malay, Romanian, Swedish, and Turkish. This addition brings the total language count for Now Nudge to 24, aligning it with the broader suite of <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/tag/galaxy-ai">Galaxy AI</a> tools.
Users looking to utilize these new additions can download select language packs directly through the Settings application on their compatible <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/category/products/mobile">Mobile</a> devices.
Bixby Expands Natural Conversation Support
Samsung is also updating <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/tag/bixby">Bixby</a>, its intelligent device agent that offers intuitive device control through natural conversation. The assistant allows users to ask for what they need in their own words, eliminating the need to memorize exact setting names or menu locations.
By incorporating Polish, Thai, and Vietnamese, <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/tag/bixby">Bixby</a> now supports 12 languages altogether. This growth follows previous architectural advancements, such as those highlighted when <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-introduces-the-new-bixby-in-one-ui-8-5">Samsung Introduces the New Bixby in One UI 8.5</a>, allowing more Galaxy users to operate their hardware effortlessly.

Meanwhile, the expanded language pack updates for <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/tag/galaxy-ai">Galaxy AI</a> are planned to follow progressively in the coming weeks.
Samsung notes that detailed release schedules and specific feature availability may vary by device model, country, and region. Furthermore, Bixby functionality requires an active Samsung Account login and an internet data connection, and performance may be influenced by pronunciation, ambient noise, and voice volume.
Comprehensive Language Ecosystem
Following these updates, the full ecosystem supports an expansive roster of 24 languages across <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/tag/galaxy-ai">Galaxy AI</a> features. The supported languages include Arabic, Chinese across multiple regions, Dutch, English variants, Filipino, French, German, Gujarati, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish variants, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, and Vietnamese.
