Instagram Will Start Letting You Translate Captions, Comments and Bios

New feature coming next month

Ever gone scrolling through Instagram and come across a breathtaking photo of the mountains of Iceland, the streets of Thailand or the jungles of the Amazon and wanted to know what the local photographer had to say about it—only to see the caption was written in a foreign language and there's no copy-and-paste option to drop it all into Google Translate? 

We've all been there. And now, Instagram is finally going to help us out.

Starting next month, the social media platform will begin offering translations for captions and comments for news feed posts written in other languages.
