Anthropic to expand Claude Voice Mode to more languages
Anthropic is preparing a significant update for Claude's mobile voice mode, adding support for 18 new languages and a push-to-talk feature, allowing users to switch languages mid-conversation.
What: Anthropic is updating Claude's mobile voice mode, introducing 18 new languages (including German, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Ukrainian) and a push-to-talk option. Users will be able to ask Claude to change languages on the fly during a conversation. This update also includes a refreshed UI and new voices for most languages, despite still relying on external text-to-speech providers like ElevenLabs.
Why it matters: This expansion helps Claude catch up to competitors like ChatGPT and Gemini, which already offer multilingual voice capabilities, making Anthropic's conversational AI more accessible globally and competitive in the mobile AI assistant market.
Takeaway: If you use Claude's mobile app and require multilingual interaction, anticipate an update adding support for 18 new languages.
