You can now dub your Facebook and Instagram Reels in different languages including Hindi, here’s how

Mark Zuckerberg confirmed on Instagram that Meta is taking another step to make your content more accessible. The social media giant has announced that the AI-powered Reels translation feature for Instagram and Facebook, which was initially available in only English and Spanish when it debuted in August, will now be available in additional languages, including Hindi and Portuguese, allowing more creators and viewers to experience content across language barriers.

Survey

In a video, Instagram’s Adam Mosseri showed how Meta’s AI can translate and dub Reels into various languages in real time. Mosseri switched languages mid-sentence, with his voice seamlessly dubbed in Hindi, Spanish, and Portuguese, showing how natural the translations sound. The AI dubbing tool works by recreating a creator’s voice and tone while translating their speech into the desired language. It includes an optional lip sync feature, which matches the creator’s mouth movements to the translated audio for a more immersive experience.

How to dub your Reels in different languages.

During the upload process, creators who are eligible to use Meta AI, typically those with public accounts or over 1,000 followers in supported regions, see a translation option. They can simply select “Translate your voice with Meta AI”, select their target language, preview the results, and publish.

To ensure transparency, Meta adds the label Translated with Meta AI to each translated video. Users can even return to the original version by selecting the three-dot menu > Audio and Language > Do not translate.

Meanwhile, Instagram has launched an interactive Map feature in India, allowing users to share and discover location-based posts, Reels, and Stories. The feature enables selective location sharing with friends, parental controls for teens, and improved privacy indicators. Users can also find nearby content on the Map for 24 hours, combining real-time discovery with privacy control.
