Yes, Perplexity has a voice mode that lets you hold a spoken, back-and-forth conversation with it, and the official Perplexity Help Center says voice mode on the web and in the Mac app is available to Pro and Max subscribers.
As of November 12, 2026, web voice mode works only in a desktop browser, not in mobile browsers. To start it, sign in at perplexity.ai, open a new task so the input box is empty, select the voice mode button and allow microphone access. In the Mac app you can also hold the FN key. Voice mode can open pages, manage Projects and run several Perplexity Computer sessions while you keep talking.
On a phone, use the Perplexity app: on iPhone, tap the voice icon in the input box to open the Perplexity Voice Assistant. The Comet browser has its own Voice Mode, opened with Option+Shift+V on Mac or Alt+Shift+V on Windows. The Help Center does not publish a voice message limit for free accounts.
