Here’s one of the voicemails I translated using this method. Select the appropriate language or, if unknown, select “Detect Language.” You may see a message pop up asking you to grant access to your microphone. Play the voicemail and watch the translation magic happen!Ĭlick on the microphone as shown in the image below to enable voice input.Click on the microphone in Google Translate.Open up to the voicemail on your phone and turn on speaker.If you know the language your voicemail is in, select that language from the dropdown.If it works as expected, click on the microphone to stop recording, then click on the X on the top right of the input box to clear the transcribed text (or highlight it all and delete). Test out the audio by speaking and ensure your voice is being detected and you see words show up in the input box as you talk.Click on the microphone as shown in the image below to enable voice input.I used the built-in microphone on my laptop and that worked perfectly. This doesn’t require any special service, just the ability to play a voicemail on speakerphone and a microphone on your computer. Now on to how to transcribe and translate calls. The FTC also brings enforcement actions against robocallers and has already stopped people responsible for billions of robocalls. The FTC has sued hundreds of companies and people responsible for unwanted calls, and has forced telemarketers making illegal calls to pay more than $100 million dollars in judgments. If you don’t think it makes a difference, think again. Today, I found a simple way to transcribe voicemails to text and translate them to English.īut first, just a reminder to make sure all of your phone numbers are on the Do Not Call List and to report scam and spam calls and texts to the FTC so they can take action. It’s frustrating because I’m 99% sure these are scam calls, but I’m still a bit curious to know what the message says. Thanks to taking a Chinese Civilizations course in college, I know enough to identify that this message is in Chinese. There’s music playing in the background and it’s a pre-recorded message. It seems that at least once a week, I get a voicemail that’s in a different language.
