WhatsApp has introduced a revolutionary feature for its users: the transcription of voice messages. A particularly long-awaited innovation, ideal for those who often don’t have the time or ability to listen to long audio messages, but above all it makes voice messages accessible even to deaf people or people with hearing difficulties.
Finally, thanks to the update, also in Italy it is possible to transform the content of vowels into readable text, with a surprising level of precision. This feature, available for iOS devices and gradually arriving on Android too, makes managing voice messages more practical.
It was designed to make daily life easier, adapting to the needs of those who receive audio at inconvenient times or in places where it is not possible to hear them. The system is capable of transcribe the message entirelyrespecting punctuation and ensuring excellent understanding of the text. During audio playback, the text is also transcribed lights up in synchronization with the words spoken.
How to activate the function
Activating this feature is really simple. First of all, you need to make sure you have the latest version of WhatsApp is installed. To proceed, simply access the Settings of the app, select the section Chat and activate the option Transcription of voice messages.
Once activated, it will be possible choose the language default for transcription, usually where you receive most voice messages. At this point, every time you receive a voice message, simply press and hold on the received message and select the option Transcribe.
The feature not only offers convenience but also demonstrates extraordinary accuracy in transcription. During the tests carried out, the application managed to correctly recognize punctuation and produce a text faithful to the original messageeven without having to play the audio. If, however, you decide to listen to the vocal anyway, the transcribed text will synchronize in real time, highlighting the spoken words as they flow through the audio.
