Audio file transcription

Hi, just notice Dropbox can transcript video files, it's a very useful feature.  But why not support audio transcription? Will this come soon?

Hi Hannah I am excited to hear this only I can't find any information how to do this? Can I do this in the app or only on my desktop?
