WhatsApp Meta AI voice support has been in the works for a while and the Android beta users are getting a new version this week.
WhatsApp Meta AI version is testing for the voice mode again
WhatsApp is testing voice chat with Meta AI for Android users. The platform has gone through multiple phases of tests earlier, and it seems the availability could be back on the agenda for the company. We first reported about the Meta AI voice support working with the Llama 3.2 AI model which already lets you summarise text, create images and even plan for your next vacation.
The Meta AI chatbot will have a dynamic halo icon similar to Siri and answer your queries with the text given on the screen. The AI chatbot will also cite the source for its response which is critical for the credibility of the platform in the long run.
Meta AI Voice Support: Will It Finally Release?
The voice support on Meta AI has been tested with the WhatsApp beta version and it is easy to enable the feature. WhatsApp keeps it disabled by default and you can tap on the Meta AI icon next to the compose chat tab on the bottom-right of the feed. Meta AI will seek your permission to access the microphone and speaker on the phone so that the AI chatbot can hear and speak to you for commands.
WhatsApp will even let you run the voice mode in the background so that you can open other apps and continue having the conversation. This also suggests WhatsApp could bring camera support like Gemini Live screen to let the Meta AI model see everything on your screen. The platform will let you mute the microphone, which you will know when the green indicator lights up at the top of the screen.
If you want a more personalised voice chat, how about talking to the AI in the voices of John Cena, Dame Judi Dench or Kristen Bell? We had heard reports of Meta taking this route for the voice feature and it was finally made official at the Meta Connect 2024 event last year.
