Voice mode is our new audio transcription feature that allows you to chat with le Chat using your voice in your preferred language, instead of typing.
📌 This feature is available in both the web app and mobile apps (iOS / Android), regardless of your subscription plan (limits may apply).
How to use Voice mode
1. Activate Voice mode
In an active le Chat conversation, click on the Voice mode button in the bottom right corner of the chat window to begin.

🚨 If you have previously denied audio access for our site or app, you may need to manually enable the microphone permission in your browser's site settings or within your mobile device's app settings. Please refer to your browser or mobile operating system documentation for specific instructions.
3. Start speaking
Once you've authorized access, the microphone will be active.
