In this video we shall see how you can talk and type on WhatsApp
Hello, My name is Aekta
The Talk & Type feature has been available on WhatsApp for some time.
Somebody asked me about this feature recently , so I thought of making a video about it.
Let's see how this works.
This is WhatsApp and I am already in a chat.
If you want to type something , click here and the keyboard will open here
Let's see how we can talk and type .
Below the mic icon there is another mic icon which is a part of the keyboard.
If you click on the mic icon a microphone will appear and you will be able to talk and type.
Let's see how this works
Let's click on the mic icon and say something.
It listens to what I speak and types it on the screen
Tap on the screen to stop it
Whatever I spoke is typed in Hindi on the screen
If this has been typed correctly you click on the Send button
Please note that what I spoke was typed in Hindi.
So how was I able to type in Hindi?
Click on the Settings icon
A menu opens up and you can choose the languages option
You have the option to choose multiple languages here
Click on Languages
You can choose from a number of languages here
Let's choose English(India)
English(UK) is already selected here
You can choose a different language here as well
A number of languages including those from Asia are available here
such as Hindi(India) which I had selected previously
Let's click on Save . I will speak in English after this.
Click on Save
and we return to the main screen
Let's click on the message box to open the keyboard.
Let's click on mic icon and say something in English
What i speak now appears on the screen in English
The text appears in English now since previously my default language was Hindi
Let's see what happens If you keep both Hindi & English as your default langauge
Click on the Tap to Speak button & speak in Hindi
As I speak the text is displayed on the screen in Hindi
It is able to understand that I was speaking in Hindi
I have chosen both English & Hindi in my language settings
When I spoke in Hindi it typed in Hindi on the screen
Let's speak something else in English
As I speak the text is displayed on the screen in English
It depends on you which language you choose here
It is continuing to listen & type on the screen.
Tap on the screen to pause
You can click on the X button to delete the text
The text has been deleted
If this keyboard doesn't appear or this option is not displayed you can choose this from Settings
Let's see how to do this
Swipe your finger from the top of the screen.
I am using a Samsung Note 4 . You can click on Settings at the top in any Android phone
Scroll down to the Language settings
Click on Language and Input
This displays your default language.
Click on Google voice typing
This is the same menu that was displayed some time back
The default languages here are English(UK) , English (India) & Hindi
You can choose any number of languages here
There are a number of options within English as well
since it can understand your accent
such as English(Australia), English( Canada), English( Generic), Ireland, New Zealand etc
You can choose English(India) if you are from South Asia or Middle East
Let's click on Cancel
