transcribe voice messages for free

Not really. It's limited to two per week.

With this update, all users can convert up to 2 messages per week into text

Per WEEK? Wow, that's so stingy I wouldn't even bother announcing it lol

Meanwhile iMessage does it on every single one automatically. Still nice seeing the feature getting picked up though

Picked up? Apple fanboys are a special breed.

Apple added the feature in iOS 17 and both parties need to be on 17. Google Messages did it last year, Google Voice had it years and years ago.

but yes, Telegram picked it up from iMessage. 🤦‍♂️

Apple wasn't the first lol

Don't accessibility features of all modern operating systems do that anyway, just as incoming texts can be read aloud when I'm driving?

I didn't know it does that. Interesting!

I hate voice Messages so much. Would love if Signal or WhatsApp would do this
