- Anthropic rolls a new voice mode to its AI -Chatbot Claude
- You can use it to search on Google Calendar and Gmail on a paid plan
- Voting mode will also be available at the free level but with use restrictions
Claude, the popular AI -Chatbot from anthropic, rolls a voice state to all its mobile app users. While still in beta, the new voting state will be in English and available to users on all current plans, including the free plan.
Voting state with Claude works just like voice mode in Gemini or Chatgpt. In fact, you tap on an icon that looks pretty much identical with the Gemini Live icon to activate it.
When voice mode is activated, you just start talking to Claude to hear its voice response. When it speaks, it shows its key points on the screen, which allows you to have seamlessly switching between text and voice within the same conversation.
You get five different claude voices to choose from according to Claude Voice Mode documentation, and you can change between them at any time by simply going to settings and then voting preferences.
Hi Claude
You can get a preview of how voice mode works in claude thanks to a practical video that has anthropically sent on x.com:

The video demonstrates how to simply talk to Claude (even while brushing your teeth) can get AI to control your calendar, search through your Gmail -Inbox or Google Drive and even draft of an E email for you.
This type of ability is moving claa in the role of a digital assistant, but it is worth noting that Gmail and Google Calendar Integrations are only available on Claude’s paid plans starting at $ 20 (about £ 16 / AU $ 32) for a Pro account, and go up to $ 200 (about £ 148 / au $ 311) one month for max 20x.
Use limits
You do not get unlimited access to voting conversations in Claude. Each conversation counts with your regular use limits based on your subscription plan.
Free Claude users can expect about 20-30 voting messages before reaching session limits, while paid plans have significantly higher limits.
Voting state is a timely upgrade to Claude, lagging behind his rivals, Chatgpt and Gemini, by not giving a voting state. Anthropic has also just updated Claude’s LLM to Claude Opus 4.0 and Claude Sonnet 4.0. OPUS 4.0 is a strong AI model that is distinguished by coding, while Sonnet is a lightweight model designed for regular use and a major improvement of the previous Sonnet 3.7 model.
