TL;DR

• The Google Play Store’s native voice search feature is currently restricted to English, forcing non-English speakers to rely on keyboard dictation workarounds.


• We’ve spotted an unreleased voice language selector in the works, supporting over 20 languages with quick toggles for recent selections.


• The feature, in its current development state, lacks automatic language detection, so speech is transcribed into the language that is manually active at the time.

Google is constantly refining the Play Store with UI updates and subtle tweaks, but a significant quality-of-life feature is currently in the works for multilinguals. In the latest Google Play Store v52.4.41-34, we managed to enable an upcoming feature that adds dedicated multi-language support to the Play Store’s built-in voice search tool.
