📝 Key Points of This Article

• It appears that the “Pin language” feature for the Android version of the Google Translate app is on the verge of being rolled out.
• Analysis of the app files in the Android Google Translate app version v10.11.52.889220129.3-release confirmed the addition of resource code for pinning and unpinning languages.
• This feature allows users to pin frequently used languages to the top of the translation language list.

In early February 2026, internal references to a language pinning feature were discovered in the Android version of the Google Translate app, raising the possibility of the feature’s upcoming release.

Initially, only a portion of the resource code related to language pinning had been added, making the feature incomplete for actual use. However, it now seems that the deployment of the language pinning feature in the Android version of Google Translate is imminent.

These details were uncovered through “app analysis.”

After analyzing the app files from the Android Google Translate app v10.11.52.889220129.3-release update, distributed on Monday, March 30, 2026, I confirmed that resource code for pinning (fixing a language) and unpinning (removing the fix) has been added.

<string name="action_pin_language">Pin language</string>
<string name="action_unpin_language">Unpin language</string>

<string name="action_pin_language">言語を固定</string>
<string name="action_unpin_language">言語の固定を解除</string>

The language pinning feature arriving on the Android Google Translate app will allow users to pin frequently used languages to the top of the translation list. This eliminates the hassle of searching for desired languages and improves convenience. Naturally, pinning can also be undone.

Since the internal preparations for the language pinning feature in the Android Google Translate app are complete, it is expected that the rollout will begin sequentially.
