You can now dictate WhatsApp messages rather than type them, thanks to a new feature just introduced by Meta, and here’s how to do it.

Before now, WhatsApp users who are too tired to text messages can do something else. Simply tap and hold the mic icon and dictate a voice message. Once released, the message enters the coversation and can be listened to by the receipients of group members.

WhatsApp has gone a step further. The voice feature has been upgraded. It can now be converted into a voice-to-text feature. What this means is that anyone can continue to send text messages by simply dictating on the app.

Here’s the way to go about it:

First, bring out the keyboard used to type WhatsApp messages.

Second, look at the top right corner for a black icon of a mic. I found mine not at the top but right on the space bar below.

Simply click on the icon and start speaking.

You will immediately see the message being typed out as you speak.

It’s really so simple. Therefore, going forward, you do not have to type!
