Android One devices include support for seven languages including Hindi, says Sundar Pichai

NEW DELHI: Google Inc’s Android One devices, set to be launched in India Monday, include support for seven additional languages including Hindi, senior vice president Sundar Pichai told ET.

Android One will come bundled with local language support for Hindi, which is the first language for over 40% of the Indian population, ET reported last week. Indian users will be able to give voice commands, type messages and use almost all major mobile applications in Hindi.

Users will not have to download any external application to access their Android One smartphones in Hindi, which are aimed at capturing the non-English speaking user base in the country.
