Web and app tip: WhatsApp: Read voice messages as text - here's how
Long voice messages can be annoying - on the bus, in the office, and in general? No problem. This WhatsApp feature quickly converts them into text - on the iPhone and, with some limitations, also on Android.
WhatsApp has introduced a transcription feature for voice messages, currently available on iPhones with iOS 16 or later. The feature, which requires Siri to be activated, converts voice messages to text locally on the device. To use it, users go to settings, select "Chats", and choose their preferred language. On Android devices, the feature is currently available in English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Russian, with German and other languages to be added soon.
