00:31Forward the voice note to +91 80 3145 2999, on Android or iPhone. The summary and to-dos come back in the same chat. Connect your MeetNotes account once with the sign-in link the chat sends you; your first recording works even before that.
In WhatsApp, long-press the voice note or audio, tap Share, and pick MeetNotes. Several at once work too; each becomes its own transcript.
Save the audio as a file first, for example to the Files app, then open MeetNotes, tap Import and choose it.
If you are about to record a long voice note for someone, record it in MeetNotes instead and send them the text or a PDF.
WhatsApp voice notes arrive as OPUS or OGG files, which MeetNotes accepts along with MP3, M4A, WAV, AAC, FLAC and video files, up to 300 MB each. More on files: audio to text.
A forwarded meeting recording or a group call gets each line labelled by voice. Name a voice once and it is recognised in later recordings.
The two instructions buried in a four-minute voice note come out as a list, with an owner and a date when someone said one.
No language to choose first. Voice notes that switch between Hindi and English, or Spanish and English, are transcribed as spoken.
Copy the text for WhatsApp, or share a PDF, a Word file or a link. The person you send it to needs no app and no account.
WhatsApp has its own voice message transcripts on some devices and in some languages (Settings, then Chats, then Voice message transcripts, per the WhatsApp Help Center, checked 27 Sep 2026). If you only need to read one short message, try that first. MeetNotes is for voice notes you need to act on or keep: long ones, forwarded meeting recordings, notes in mixed languages, and anything you want summarised, searched later or sent on as a document.
