YouTube tests instant comment translations for Premium subscribers

Youtube is planning to add a new instant translation feature for the comments section. However, the new feature will be available only to Youtube Premium subscribers, as the test only applies to those who have registered for the service.

Τhe Translate button will be placed beneath comments that aren’t written in the users' primary language, and when they select it, the translation will be displayed. Users will also be able to tap on the See Original button to translate it back to the original text.

It hasn’t been clarified whether this is feature will be only available to Premium subscribers or whether it will be widely available, however, we believe that if it proves to be particularly useful it would be interesting to release it to all users globally.
