Soon, you will be able to transcribe the voice messages you receive into text
WhatsApp continues to work on new features to improve the user experience. Currently the messaging application owned by Meta is developing a tool that, when it is available to all users, will allow transcribe voice messages.
The functionality that, as we say, cannot be used for the moment, promises to become one of the most interesting new features that the ‘app’ has received in years. And it is that voice messages can be very useful in those moments in which we have a lot to tell, but if, for example, the receiver is working or is in a place where they must remain silent, listening to them can become a problem.
The novelty, like many others, has been located by the portal specialized in information about WhatsApp WABetaInfo. The functionality is currently in beta phase, so some people can already try it.
At the moment, it is in the beta version 2.23.3.73 for devices iOS. That is, for iPhone. Although, for the moment, there is no evidence that the tool is being tested in Android, it is expected that at the time of deployment it will reach both operating systems simultaneously. Which is what almost always happens.
In the shared images of the function, you can see that WhatsApp explains that the transcription can sometimes fail. In order for the tool to work correctly, it is important that the Internet user configures it in the correct language before starting the transcription. As always, the ‘app’ is still unable to listen to the content of the voice messages.
It is unknown when the functionality will be available to all WhatsApp users, although it is expected to arrive in the coming months. The application has also been working on it for quite some time. Specifically, since 2021, according to the specialized portal.
