Native Translation Finally Arrives With Firefox 118😍 +====== +Firefox 118 makes it easy for users to translate webpages. +In recent times, Mozilla seems to be busy improving Firefox in whatever way possible. Take, for instance, [better support][1] for Google's web services, or the previous [Firefox 117 release][2]. + +And now we have yet another release in the form of the Firefox 118 release, that **finally introduces privacy-focused translations natively** , doing away with the need for workarounds. + +Let's dive in and see what this release has to offer. + +## 🆕 Firefox 118: What's New? + +![][3] + +Firefox 118, like previous releases, has a lot to offer. Some key highlights include: + + * **Native In-Browser Translations** + * **Improvements for Google Meet** + * **Important Security Fixes** + + + +We will first focus on the translation feature, then the rest. + +![][4] + +### Native In-Browser Translations + +0:00 + +/ + +1× + +Well, after some time of testing, [Firefox][5] finally has **native support for in-browser translations**. We checked this out in the [Firefox 117 release][2], but it was not available by default. + +Now, it's just a few clicks away, as shown in the video above. You just have to go into the hamburger menu, then click on ' **Translate page** ', then select the translate from and to languages and click on ' **Translate** '. + +For switching back to the original language, just click on the translation logo in the address bar, and click on ' **Show original** '. + +In my experience, **this feature runs into some issues** when there are multiple languages on the same webpage, and there's no support for translating text from images or videos. + +But that figures, as **the translation widget still says 'Beta'** on it. I am certain that the developers will push updates for improving its functionality in the coming months. + +**Suggested Read** 📖 + +![][6] + +### 🛠️ Other Changes and Improvements + +As for the rest of the under-the-hood refinements: + + * Video effects and background blur are now available for Firefox users on [Google Meet][7]. + * [Firefox suggest][8] users will now be shown browser add-on suggestions in the address bar. (US Only). + * The visibility of fonts on websites has been restricted to only system fonts, to stop font fingerprinting in private browsing windows. + * Web audio in Firefox now makes use of the [FDLIBM][9] math library to improve privacy. + * Various [security fixes][10]. + + + +You can also go through the official [release notes][11] to dive further into some technical bits. + +## 📥 Get Mozilla Firefox 118 + +Firefox 118 is available to download from the [official website][12] as a **.tar.bz2 package** , and as a **Flatpak** from the [Flathub store][13]. + +In either case, you can also try Firefox's [Snap package][14]. + +[Mozilla Firefox 118][12] + +**For existing installations:** You can update it by searching for ' **Update** ', in the settings menu, and clicking on ' **Check for Updates** ' or check for system updates to get it from the repositories. + +_💬 Are you excited about the new translation feature?
