Description

### Your use case

function to transcribe your voice notes to text. Hello, here I am again with my requests for people with disabilities in this case for deaf and deafblind people. although I must admit that it is a function that also works for people without any disability since there are people who for some reason cannot listen to audio at that moment because they are in a meeting because they cannot disturb making noise or simply because the audio is very long and it is much faster to read than to listen. Whatever the reason, in short, audio-to-text transcription is definitely a very useful feature. In fact, I was looking at a news story that WhatsApp plans to incorporate this accessibility solution in the future and I wonder why we should be left behind with a function that is really not complicated since cell phones currently have the option of transcribing audio to text. , functions that can be incorporated into the keyboard and in many Android applications, why not incorporate it into the chat so that it transcribes voice notes?

### Have you considered any alternatives?

an alternative can be a boot to which the voice memo was sent as a mention and returned it translated into text
