A while ago, WhatsApp got its act together and started improving an app that was lagging (far) behind the competition. now the company acquired by Meta is working on a feature that will change your life and surely he will for good. This feature is none other than transcription of audios into texts.
The audio transcript will come on WhatsApp, and it is that, as WABetaInfo points out, the latest version of the beta of WhatsApp for iOS introduces this transcription function for the audio notes sent to us by chat. With this function, the application will identify, understand and will turn the message sent to you from audio to text
For example, transcriptions are not available when no words are identified or when the voicemail message is in a different language than that set for transcriptions. On another side, all transcriptions will be processed on our device and will not be uploaded to WhatsApp or Apple servers, which is a great advantage in terms of confidentiality (even though Meta is the company behind it and its precedents).
For now, only beta version of whatsapp for iphone has transcription feature, and it is not known when it will arrive in the Android application. Telegram, now one of WhatsApp’s main competitors, already offers audio and video transcription. However, in this case, the feature is only available for Telegram Premium subscribers. On WhatsApp, the feature will be free for everyone. No more listening to the audios of those “heavy friends” who reply to everything with long audios or even say two words to you.
Remember WhatsApp also announced this week additional news for your states and that we also told you in Actualidad iPhone, with the aim of improving the experience and promoting its use within the community. They are also working on a desktop version for macOS with M.. We will continue.
