# Voice memos

April 17, 2026. A voice memo on iMessage is transcribed, and the assistant can answer with one.

Someone sends a voice memo. TextWork transcribes it and the assistant reads that text.

While the thread stays in voice, the reply comes back as a voice memo. A text message switches the thread back to text.

Sample voice memo, transcribed: Nathan crushed it at 73 Patterson, got the bathroom fan wired, fixed the door closing, and knocked out both holders, which is great. But unfortunately, he still has to come back for the carpet, stairwell drywall, and a few other smaller things, not to mention the window at 71 and work at 217 Oakland. Hopefully, he wraps up his brother's trench soon.
