Instagram Expands Meta AI Translations to Indian Languages + New Regional Fonts in Edits App
.webp)
Meta has announced a fresh wave of India-focused updates for
Instagram, Facebook, and its standalone Edits app. The new additions, revealed
during the House of Instagram event in Mumbai, are geared toward
boosting creator reach and enhancing multilingual content creation. One of the
biggest highlights is the expansion of Meta AI-powered translations to several
widely spoken Indian languages.
Meta AI Translations Now Support More Indian Languages
Meta confirmed that creators will soon be able to translate
their Reels into Bengali, Kannada, Marathi, Tamil, and Telugu using
Instagram’s AI-driven dubbing and lip-sync tools. The update will also be
available on Facebook.
The dubbing feature, powered by Meta AI, is designed to:
- Maintain
the creator’s original voice tone,
- Deliver
fluency in translated languages,
- Ensure
the content feels natural and authentic.
Meanwhile, the lip-sync feature adjusts the
translated audio to match the speaker’s mouth movements, giving the impression
that the creator is speaking the translated language themselves.
These languages join Meta’s earlier rollout that supported
English, Hindi, Spanish, and Portuguese.
Edits App Gets New Indian Fonts
Meta is also introducing regional Indian fonts inside its
Edits app — the video-editing tool built for fast, high-quality mobile content
creation. The app already includes features such as high-resolution video
capture, keyframing, auto captions, and manual camera controls.
With the new update, creators can now style text using Devanagari
and Bengali-Assamese scripts, supporting Assamese, Bengali, Hindi, and
Marathi languages. The feature will arrive on Android devices first.
How to Use the New Regional Fonts in Edits
- Open
the Edits app and select the project you want to modify.
- Tap on
Text at the bottom of the timeline.
- Tap
the Aa icon to browse through the available fonts.
If your device language is already set to a script like
Devanagari or Bengali-Assamese, the new fonts will appear by default.
Otherwise, you can swipe through the All Fonts list and filter by
language.
