Voice mode

Voice mode lets you have spoken conversations with Claude instead of typing. You speak, Claude listens, and it responds aloud in a synthesized voice. The feature handles two distinct jobs: a conversational voice interface on the iOS and Android mobile apps where you can speak and hear responses naturally, and a push-to-talk dictation tool inside the Claude Code CLI (typed as /voice in the terminal) designed to speed up developer workflows by injecting transcribed speech directly into the command line. On mobile, voice mode supports continuous hands-free listening or push-to-talk, depending on your environment. Hands-free mode detects natural pauses and responds automatically; push-to-talk requires you to hold a button while speaking, which works better in noisy settings. You can switch between voice and text within the same conversation without losing context. Voice mode is currently in beta across all supported platforms. The mobile conversational interface is the primary feature most users encounter; the CLI /voice integration is a specialized tool aimed at developers who want to dictate complex technical prompts without breaking their keyboard-driven workflow.
