WhatsApp Voice Note Transcription

Forward WhatsApp voice notes directly to Autrans (PWA share-target) and get text transcripts back without leaving the chat.

From Lagos to Abuja to Kano, WhatsApp voice notes are the dominant Nigerian comms channel, and the most annoying to scroll through later. Autrans installs as a PWA on Android: forward any voice note from WhatsApp's share sheet (works for personal chats, family group chats, and WhatsApp Business inboxes) and get the text back without leaving the conversation. Pidgin, Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo all handled, and it works on a 2G connection.

Benefits

  • Native Android share-sheet integration via PWA
  • Built for the short voice notes that fill a WhatsApp chat
  • Nigerian language code-switching handled
  • Lands ready on the upload page, transcribe in one tap

Frequently asked questions

Does it work on iOS?

Partially, iOS Safari has limited Web Share Target API support. Android is the primary path; iOS fallback uses the regular upload flow.

How much does it cost?

Free tier covers casual use; voice notes ≥30s round up to a 1-minute charge.

Can Autrans convert WhatsApp voice notes (.opus) to MP3?

Yes, use the Audio Converter tool to turn .opus files from WhatsApp into MP3 for sharing or archive. The transcription product also accepts .opus directly without conversion.
