How the new Samsung technology works
In summary, Voice Captioning is able to transform any audio into text In instantly, starting from videos, telephone calls or live conversations. The function is therefore a full -bodied step forward compared to the normal live captions already present on Samsung devices, since some key elements are introduced that make it more powerful and versatile than we are now used to using.
The first of these elements is the Automatic translation in real time. In fact, if traditional live captions are limited to transcribing words in the same original language, Voice Captioning can instead immediately translate audio content into different languages, so not far from what the live translate function does on Google’s pixel phones.
Then there is a second innovative non -underestimated innovative aspect, which concerns the ability to create automatic summaries Of everything that is transcribed: after listening to a long conversation or a video, therefore, the user can request and obtain a synthesis of the main points without having to listen to all the content and make a summary manually.
Finally, a third function, which allows you to save both the transcribed text and the original audio filecreating a complete archive of information for future consultations.
Some use problems emerge
Despite the interesting potential, Voice Captioning is not yet officially available For all users. At the moment, Samsung communicates that it has released the function only in China, leaving users of the rest of the world waiting for a global launch of which you do not yet have punctual estimates.
However, it is true that some users managed to access the function via apk file Manually downloadable. However, it is – we reiterate it once again – of an unofficial method that allows you to install voice caption on Galaxy devices that use One UI 8 or One UI 7, but which involves different risks and limitations. In addition to the above, it is noted that the first tests conducted on devices with One UI 8 Beta show contrasting results. In fact, many users report that the application closes unexpectedly during use, making the experience still unreliable.
The reports of other users on Reddit also confirm that The APK version does not work properly On most of the Beta Veta Ui 8 versions. Only some users seem to have managed to use it without problems, however representing isolated cases compared to the majority. For those interested, however, to follow this path, remember that to activate the function, after the installation of the APK, it is necessary to add the Voice Captioning shortcut to the quick settings panel, grant the necessary authorizations and select the languages supported for the translations.
Better to wait for the official release
Considering the Stability and compatibility problems emerged from the tests, we recommend that you wait for the global official release of Voice Captioning. Samsung has not yet communicated a precise date for the international launch, but it is likely that it reaches the stable updates of One UI 8. L ‘Installation of unofficial apk In fact, it always involves risks for the safety of your device and for the stability of the system. In short, even if the temptation to try immediately the novelties is understandable, those who tried to do it has generated a predominantly not very satisfactory experience.
In any case, it is clear that it is only a matter of time and that Voice Captioning is A significant step in the evolution of the mobile AIconfirming how much Samsung is investing heavily in the development of intelligent functions to improve the accessibility and usability of its devices.
