With technological advances, there are more and more options that users have to send a message from their cell phones. WhatsApp, for example, has gone from being an application that previously only allowed you to send text messages to hosting multimedia files such as photos, videos, gifs, voice notes, stickers and others. A few updates ago, the Meta app has incorporated a little-known option that allows a voice to read our messages.
It is a virtual assistant that is not Hey Google or Siri and that is found natively in the same application, whether you are an Android or iOS user. The best thing is that to perform this simple trick you won’t need to download any third-party app or buy a paid app.
The only requirement is to have a mobile device with WhatsApp, which, if possible, has the most recent version of the app as well as the operating system.
