WhatsApp is working on a host of new features. The latest feature that WhatsApp is reportedly working on is a voice transcription feature. WhatsApp was earlier toying with the idea of integrating a third-party app for the voice transcription feature. However, as per the latest reports, WhatsApp has taken the matters into its own hands and working on the feature. The feature will reportedly be optional, and it is currently being developed. WhatsApp recently added a new security layer to its messages by offering end-to-end encryption for chat back-ups. As per noted tipster Wabetainfo, WhatsApp is working on a possibility to bring a voice transcription feature to its messaging app. This simply means the app will start transcribing the voice messages when the feature will be rolled out. “We already talked about the possibility to get a transcription of your voice messages four months ago, using a third-party app on WhatsApp for Android. An external app was needed because WhatsApp doesn’t support this feature, but today things are finally changing because we can announce that WhatsApp is working on voice message transcription!” the report said.
