WhatsApp has been working on different features that can enhance connectivity and improve the user experience. While many features are in the pipeline, WhatsApp is now reportedly working on a new feature which will transcribe the voice notes sent by your friends, family, colleagues or loved ones.
A report claims that users will be able to translate voice notes into text so they can understand the context of the content without ever having to play them. In many circumstances, the feature can be helpful, especially for younger users. The article claims that both iOS and Android users can access the feature.
According to the WaBetaInfo report, the function aims to assist users who are looking for an alternative means of communication, particularly those who are having trouble playing audio files or who would rather text than take voice notes. WhatsApp started testing the feature for the Android versions shortly after it was successfully added for iOS.

Users no longer need to play the voice note when transcribing audio messages into text according to the most recent WhatsApp beta version for Android. WhatsApp uses speech recognition technologies on the device to provide transcriptions that safeguard end-to-end encryption.
Users will require an additional 150 MB of programme data to use the functionality when it becomes available to the general public. After that, the feature will activate automatically, albeit there are situations when you may need to manually activate it. Upon activating the transcription option, users will receive a notification prompting them to read the transcripts before listening, along with the content of the transcribed message.
