WhatsApp is reportedly testing a feature to transcribe voice messages for users. According to WhatsApp update tracker WABetaInfo, to transcribe voice notes, users will have to download 150MB of new app data. This feature will reportedly work on language-specific speech recognition, allowing users to select different languages for different voice notes. Users will have to download language-specific packages to enable transcription. This package maintains end-to-end encryption and ensures that data is not shared externally, as transcripts are processed locally on the device.
