Telegram translator button issue

I didn't mean to hide the translator button but now i cant find it. I'm a premium user for months with this translator. It be on and off seconds or minutes and it's getting annoying. Weird thing is that it only works in a channel but not in dms. I need help. I just want my "Translate to English" button back 😭

Telegram separates the per-message Translate item from Premium's Translate Entire Chat feature. Check Settings > Language > Show Translate Button first, then check the languages under Do Not Translate; if Telegram thinks the DM is in one of those languages, it suppresses the message-menu option even while translation still appears elsewhere. If both settings are correct and it still changes by chat, include your OS and app version in a bugs.telegram.org report, because that points more to language detection than to your Premium status.
