Originally created by @lukaas33 on GitHub (Nov 13, 2025).

Next to the microphone button there is a button that starts what I think is called voice mode.
I could not find any documentation on this feature but I assume it does realtime interaction with models that support it.
For me this feature does not work as expected since it does not respond to any of my microphone input.
For reference, both TTS and STT work for me.
My guess of why this doesn't work is because litellm does not seem to support the realtime endpoints.
I am fine with it not working but would like to know how to remove the button from the GUI then.

More information in the docs on this would be appreciated.

yes you need a realtime compatible TTS engine like TTS-1 or TTS-HD by openAI

it needs streaming/realtime.

Not sure where/how to document this as there is no extra page for this feature hmm..

Maybe I will add one or add more documentation to related environment variables once this gets merged: https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/18607

I believe it should be documented, yes. I think it could be its own page in the STT/TTS section.

@lukaas33

I am fine with it not working but would like to know how to remove the button from the GUI then.

There is a permission toggle for this in the admin panel

I could not find any documentation on this feature but I assume it does realtime interaction with models that support it.
For me this feature does not work as expected since it does not respond to any of my microphone input.
For reference, both TTS and STT work for me.
My guess of why this doesn't work is because litellm does not seem to support the realtime endpoints.

its already documented and the env vars for this feature were recently expanded.
and the voice mode is used by setting an LLM, TTS and STT model.

Realtime models are not supported yet.
Feature request for realtime models is here: https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/5894
