Can I transcribe iPhone Voice Memos?

Yes. In Voice Memos, tap the recording, choose Share, save it to Files, and then select the M4A file in TalkToTextly.

Can I convert Android voice recordings to text?

Yes. Open your recorder app or file manager, find the saved recording, and select the audio file in TalkToTextly. Common Android formats such as M4A, MP3, WAV, AAC, 3GP, OGG, and OPUS are supported.

Does TalkToTextly access WhatsApp or my messages?

No. TalkToTextly does not connect to WhatsApp, log in to messaging accounts, or read chats. It only transcribes the audio file you manually save or share and then select.

What file formats work for voice notes?

Common voice-note formats include M4A, MP3, WAV, AAC, 3GP, OGG, OPUS, and WebM. Support still depends on your browser and device.

Convert Voice Notes to Text

Use this page for general voice notes: iPhone Voice Memos, Android Recorder files, spoken reminders, quick ideas, and short personal recordings. WhatsApp has its own page because the export workflow is more specific.

🔒 Private by design: select a saved audio file in your browser. TalkToTextly does not connect to messaging accounts or read messages.

How to Turn a Voice Note Into Text

Save or Export the Audio

Use Share, Save to Files, Downloads, or your recorder app's export option to keep the voice note as an audio file on your device.

Choose It in TalkToTextly

Open TalkToTextly in your browser and select the saved M4A, MP3, WAV, OGG, OPUS, AAC, or 3GP file.

Copy or Export the Transcript

Review the text, then copy it or download TXT, SRT, VTT, or DOCX for notes, captions, records, or follow-up messages.

Where Your Voice Note Might Come From

The exact export button depends on the app, but the safe workflow is the same: save the audio file first, then choose that file in TalkToTextly.

iPhone Voice Memos

Open Voice Memos, tap the recording, use Share, and choose Save to Files before selecting the M4A file here.

Android Recorder apps

Open Recorder, Samsung Voice Recorder, Pixel Recorder, or Files, then share or locate the saved audio file.

WhatsApp voice messages

Save or share the voice message audio manually. TalkToTextly only transcribes the file you choose; it does not open WhatsApp.

Personal notes and reminders

Use the transcript to search ideas, clean up spoken drafts, summarize reminders, or paste text into your notes app.

What You Can Do With the Transcript

Once the voice note is text, it is easier to search, edit, quote, translate, summarize, or file with the rest of your notes.

Make spoken notes searchable

Find names, dates, tasks, and decisions without replaying the audio.

Turn long audio into readable text

Paste the transcript into Notes, Docs, email, Messages, Slack, or your task manager.

Download useful formats

Export plain text, subtitles, captions, or a Word-compatible document from the same browser session.

Keep the workflow file-based

You control which file is selected. There is no direct account integration or message inbox access.
