You will see astar button on the upper right corner of the screen when you are transcribing speech. Tapping on this button will save the transcriptsto your phone. These can be accessed from the side bar, and can also be renamed for better organisation.

Google’s transcribe feature works with nine languages right now: English, Hindi, Spanish, French, German, Thai, Italian, Russian, and Portuguese.

According toXDA developers, the feature was spotted under development back in May. It’s here now, but itseems to be a server side change so it may not show up for everyone just yet. You can update Google Translate on your Android smartphone to the latest version available on the Play Store, and then wait for Google to push the feature to your device as well.

So, have you used Google Translate’s real time transcription feature? Do you think the new addition of saving these transcripts will prove useful to you? Let us know in the comments.
