Today we will teach you how to turn audio into text on WhatsApp, using a new feature made available by the messaging app.

Through an update, WhatsApp added the function of turning an audio into text, helping the user at times when he is unable to hear an audio.

This new WhatsApp feature was widely commented on by Internet users on social networks, mainly through Twitter.

The new function can only be used by some users with the test version of the app, with no date set for the launch of the feature for all other users.

Below, we bring you a tutorial to guide you on how to activate the new WhatsApp feature, which turns audio into text.

An important fact is that the step by step was done with an iPhone 12, iOS 16.4.1., and the user can adapt these instructions to another type of device.

  1. Open the WhatsApp app;
  2. Go to settings;
  3. Access the “Conversations” option;
  4. Scroll down and look for the “Voice message transcription” option;
  5. To activate the new feature, pull the switch to the right and turn it green;
  6. To deactivate, pull the switch to the left.

Once this is done, it is already possible to go back to the home screen and check, by entering a conversation, if the feature is working correctly.

There is a possibility that the feature is not available for some user because your ap requires updating, so go to the app store to check.

Another novelty of the WhatsApp app

A new look for WhatsApp on the Android system will be released soon, according to the WAVetaInfo website, which will look similar to the iOS look.

A menu with a minimalist, more modern style will be created for the messaging application.

There is no scheduled date for such a release, but it should first appear in the app through the Beta version, for testing.
