A few days ago WhatsApp announced the launch of personalized lists with which users could improve the organization of their chats. All of these new features have been launched after testing by users enrolled in the messaging service’s beta program. Today, WhatsApp has surprised with the release of voice message transcripts and with very good news: It is compatible with Spanish. And it is a surprise because usually these news innovative They always tend to leave Spanish in the background. We tell you what this function consists of and how to activate it.
Transcriptions of voice messages arrive on WhatsApp
Many times we are in a place where we cannot hear notes or voice messages and we have friends or family who do nothing but send them to us. This is a problem because We would like to know the content of the message without having to reproduce it. And the solution, we have often imagined, would be solved with a transcription of those messages. That wish has already come true.
WhatsApp announced on its official website the launch of transcribing voice messages directly from the application itself. In fact, the company justifies this feature this way:
Voice messages allow you to connect with friends and family in an even more personal way. Hearing the voice of a loved one, even when you are far away, has a special charm. However, sometimes we are in the middle of an activity in a noisy place or receive a long voice message and we just can’t stop to listen to it.
For moments like this, we are pleased to present you with voicemail transcripts. The voice messages you receive can be transcribed to text so you can participate in conversations no matter what you are doing.
This function It will be deployed around the world in the coming weeks but for now we are calm since it is compatible with English, Portuguese, Spanish and Russian. When we have activated the function and start using it, we will have to select a voice message and click on Transcribe. At that moment, the text will appear just below the audio as you can see in the image that heads this article.
