Using Copilot Voice with Microsoft Copilot
Microsoft Copilot Voice uses advanced speech recognition and natural language processing to understand your spoken words and engage in conversation with you.
When you start a Copilot Voice conversation, Copilot begins listening and processing your voice input. Copilot generates responses and will speak the response out loud to you. Once the conversation has ended, a text transcript of the conversation is made available to you.
Use of Copilot Voice is not limited, but Copilot Pro users have priority access whenever capacity is limited. It also works in a wide range of languages.
How to use Copilot Voice
-
You can initiate a Copilot Voice conversation in the Copilot app by clicking on the microphone icon.
Note: If it's your first time using Copilot Voice, you may need to grant microphone access to Copilot on your browser or device. If you change your mind later, you can turn off Copilot access to your microphone in your platform settings.
-
Once the microphone is enabled, Copilot will play an audio greeting, and you can have a voice conversation with Copilot.
-
You can mute yourself by clicking on the microphone icon, which will disable the microphone and stop Copilot from listening. Clicking on the microphone icon again will unmute, allowing you to resume the conversation.
-
To end a voice conversation, click on the 'X' icon. Copilot Voice will disengage and stop listening. Voice conversations may also be time-limited and will automatically disconnect once you reach the time limit.
Changing your preferred voice
When you first install the Copilot app you will be asked to select a preferred voice. You can later change this voice using the following steps:
-
On copilot.microsoft.com: Select your profile icon, select your profile name, then select Voice and the specific voice you want to use.
-
In Copilot for Windows or macOS: Select your profile icon, then select Settings. Next to Voice, select the specific voice you want to use.
-
In the Copilot mobile app: Open the menu, select your profile icon, then select Voice Settings. There you can select the specific voice you want to use and your preferred playback speed.
How is my Copilot Voice data used?
Voice data is used to provide the Copilot Voice service. You can also control whether your Copilot Voice conversations are used for model training.
Text transcripts produced from your Copilot Voice conversations are handled in the same way as conversation history from your other Copilot interactions.
Providing feedback on Copilot Voice
At the end of every voice conversation, Copilot will ask for feedback. Your feedback helps us improve Copilot Voice to better meet your expectations.
