Voice message to text — free and private
Turn a saved voice message into text. The file is transcribed on your device and never uploaded.
Speaker labels (optional). Rename speakers, then choose a speaker on the line where they start talking. Following lines change with it until you pick another speaker.
Transcribing voice messages
Save or export the voice message from your chat app to your device, then choose the file here. Voice messages are often small Ogg or Opus files. Chrome and Firefox usually open them; if your browser cannot, convert the message to MP3 first.
Voice notes are short, so they transcribe quickly, and keeping them private matters because they are personal. Nothing leaves your device. Language auto-detect works for many messages, or choose it yourself for a better result.
Questions
Can I convert a WhatsApp voice message to text?
Yes, once you have saved the message as an audio file. Choose that file here and it is transcribed on your device.
Why will my voice message not open?
Your browser may not support its format, often Opus. Converting the file to MP3 or M4A usually fixes it.
Other formats: any audio or video · MP3 · M4A · WAV
