Translate a Google Meet call in real time
Google shipped Live Translate into Meet in 2026. At general availability it pairs English with Spanish, French, German, Portuguese and Italian, and it depends on your Workspace tier. If your language pair is not on that list, Konvo fills the gap.
What you do
Start Konvo before you join, choose your two languages, and open Meet as normal. Translation streams into a floating window while people speak.
There is no extension to install into Chrome and no bot to admit. Since March 2026 Meet has been flagging third-party notetaker bots as a risk, and Konvo is unaffected because it never joins.
Where Google is still the better option
If your organisation runs on Workspace and your language pair is one of the supported five, Meet Live Translate is included with what you already pay for. Use it. Konvo is for the calls it does not cover.
What it does not do
- Desktop only, so Meet on a phone is out of reach.
- Google will keep widening its own language coverage inside Meet.
