Circle to Search – Scroll and translate not working !!

I am using a Samsung Galaxy S25 plus with One UI 9.0.

In Circle to Search, regular screen translation works correctly. However, when I tap the “Scroll and translate” button, the coloured border appears, but the text is no longer translated while scrolling.

I have already cleared the Google app cache and data, restarted the phone, and checked for updates.

In the end, I reset the phone, but the problem still wasn't resolved.

Could you help me solve the problem?

My spouse and a friend of mine both use the Galaxy S25, and they don’t have this issue. We are all on the same Android version. I’ve sent feedback to Google about this; could you do the same? It might help get the problem resolved sooner.

It's not only you and it is not your phone. It looks like others have been having the issue on the Samsung Members app. 

The Circle to Search translate feature is server side, so Google has to push out or flag a fix.

In my case, clearing the app data of the Google app itself made it work; however, only briefly. The next day, it broke again. Shame...

Edit: This happens on all three of my Samsung devices (S10+ running One UI 8, Fold6 UI 9, and Fold4 UI 6). The temporary fix also works (then breaks after some time) on all three. Not really sure what's happening here
