WeChat carries business and personal conversation together, often bilingually. Typally works at the keyboard level, so anywhere WeChat accepts typing, it accepts your voice instead.
From the people who build Typally. If WeChat's own option covers your use, use it — this page will tell you when it does.Voice messages and, in places, speech features aimed at its own ecosystem.
For anyone doing business with Chinese partners, WeChat is not optional, and it usually means writing in a second language on a keyboard that fights you.
