The most recent iteration of watchOS, watchOS 11, will feature the Translate application.

Translate will employ artificial intelligence (AI) to facilitate speech recognition and translation in various languages, similar to other platforms.

Translate can function without a phone connection on the Apple Watch Series 9, Apple Watch Series 10, and Apple Watch Ultra.
