Read voice messages instead of listening to them. Share a voice message or audio file to Voicely and get the transcript, a short summary and reply suggestions in seconds. In a meeting, on a noisy train or just not in the mood to listen? Voicely turns the voice messages you receive into text you can read quietly. HOW IT WORKS 1. In WhatsApp, Telegram or any app that can share an audio file, tap Share. 2. Choose "Read with Voicely". 3. Read the transcript, summary and suggested replies. You can also import an audio file from Files inside the app. WHAT YOU GET • Transcript: the full message as text, in its original language. • Summary: the main point at a glance, when the message needs one. • Reply suggestions: three short replies you can copy with a tap. • Automatic translation: if a message is in another language, Voicely adds a translation into your preferred language. Choose from 17 languages. • Copy: copy the transcript, translation or a reply in one tap. • History and search: find any past transcript or translation by keyword. GOOD TO KNOW • Voicely works with audio you share or import. It does not record audio. • Voicely detects the spoken language automatically. • The free plan includes a few transcripts each month. Voicely Pro gives you much higher monthly limits. PRIVACY Audio you share is sent securely to our AI service to create the transcript, summary, replies and translation. Your transcript history is stored on your iPhone. VOICELY PRO Voicely Pro is available as a weekly or annual auto-renewing subscription with higher monthly transcript and audio limits. Eligible new subscribers may be offered a free trial; its length is shown before you subscribe. • Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at the confirmation of purchase. • Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. • Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. • You can manage your subscriptions and turn off auto-renewal in your App Store account settings after purchase. • Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
