Transcribe Messenger voice messages a whole thread, read in minutes.
To transcribe Messenger voice messages, save the audio to your device and upload it here, one message at a time or joined into one file; two hours of messages come back in about 4 minutes. The first 20 minutes are free, and a thread of 30 four-minute messages (120 minutes) fits the $6 pack of 500 minutes.
From a chat thread to a page
Forty voice messages are hard to follow by ear. On a page they read like a letter.
Saving the audio
How you save a voice message depends on the app and its version. On a computer, the message's menu in the browser may offer a download; on a phone, the option is often missing. Meta's account tools also let you download a copy of your information, which can include message audio, so check what that export contains. The saved files are often MP4 or M4A audio.
One file or many
Every message you upload gets its own transcript. To read a long thread as one document, join the messages in order with any audio editor and export a single file; it keeps one timeline. The box here takes files up to 500 MB, and larger exports continue on upload page, still up to 10 hours or 5 GB.
A long thread, priced
Thirty messages averaging four minutes come to 120 minutes and use the $6 pack of 500, with plenty left. A family archive of 300 such messages, 1,200 minutes, fits the $12 pack of 2,000.
What the brief shows
The brief collects what the thread was about, the names, numbers and dates mentioned, and the questions it settled. The people talking are named in the summary and key quotes, and the chat finds the message where an address or a time was given.

FAQ
Messenger voice messages, the common questions.
Can I paste a Messenger link instead?
No. Links work for YouTube, Vimeo, Twitch, Kick, Google Drive and podcast feeds. A voice message has to be saved as a file first, or put in a Google Drive folder and shared as a Drive link.
How long does it take?
About 2 minutes per hour of audio. A single short message finishes in seconds, and a two-hour joined thread in about 4 minutes.
Should I join the messages first?
Only if you want one document. Separate uploads give one transcript per message; a joined file gives one transcript with timestamps across the whole thread.
What does it cost?
The first 20 minutes are free on a first visit, so a few short messages may cost nothing. A longer file is previewed, and a pack from $6 transcribes the rest. Packs are one-time and credits never expire.
Do I need consent to transcribe someone's messages?
Treat their voice messages as you would their letters: transcribe them for your own use, and ask before sharing the text.
What formats and privacy apply?
You can download TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON. Every file is transcribed on our own servers, and none is ever used for training. WhipScribe has no connection to Messenger and never sees your chats.
