With the release of iOS 17.4, Apple introduced several exciting updates, including new emojis, changes to the App Store in the European Union, and transcripts for Apple Podcasts. Among these enhancements is an update to Siri, Apple's voice assistant, which now offers the ability to read incoming messages in multiple languages.
Previously, Siri could only read messages in the primary language set on your device. However, with the latest iOS update, users can now have Siri read messages in more than one language. This feature is particularly useful for multilingual individuals or those who communicate in different languages with their contacts, reported BGR.

4. In the "Read Messages" section, tap "Add Language."
5. Choose the additional language(s) you want Siri to use for reading messages.
You can add multiple languages to the list, allowing Siri to read incoming messages in all selected languages. To add more languages, simply repeat steps 4 and 5. If you wish to remove a language, swipe left on the language list under the "Read Messages" section and tap "Delete."
This new capability enhances the accessibility and usability of Siri for users who communicate in multiple languages. Whether you're conversing in English, Spanish, German, or any other supported language, Siri can now assist you by reading messages in your preferred language(s).
