How Will It Work?
WhatsApp is reportedly developing a feature to convert voice notes into text, aiming to provide users with an alternative means of communication.
Initially launched for iOS, the feature is now being tested for Android users, allowing them to transcribe voice messages into text format. This significant stride towards inclusivity and convenience signals WhatsApp’s commitment to enhancing user experience.
Testing Phase and Availability
The feature is currently in the testing phase and available to a limited number of beta users. It utilizes the device’s speech recognition capabilities to generate transcripts locally, ensuring privacy and end-to-end encryption. Upon release, users will be prompted to download additional app data, with the feature enabled by default. WhatsApp aims to roll out the feature to more users in the near future.
