The feature, which appeared in WhatsApp Beta version 2.24.15.5, is currently being tested by limited users in certain countries.

The feature currently supports English, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian and Hindi languages, and once the selected language pack is downloaded, audio transcripts are created on the device, ensuring user privacy.

Transcribing voice messages not only simplifies the app experience for the hearing impaired, but also allows users to access voice messages in noisy or unsuitable environments.

In addition, transcribing the content of long voice notes will undoubtedly be beneficial in terms of better understanding an important subject.
