If you remember, a few months ago, WhatsApp got a new voice message feature that allowed users to preview their voice messages before sending them to others. The feature doesn’t require any changes to the app settings, and it’s available for all Android users.
Now it looks like WhatsApp recently gained a slew of new voice message features that will improve communication between users via voice notes. If you are using the latest version of WhatsApp, you will be able to pause/resume the voice messages, change the playback screen, view the waveform visualization, draft previews, and more.
Another exciting & most useful addition to the WhatsApp voice message feature is the out-of-chat playback. With the out-of-chat playback feature, users can listen to the voice messages even while scrolling through other chats on the app.
If you are using the latest version of WhatsApp, you will be able to use all these features for free. However, if you cannot find these new features, you need to wait for a few more days or weeks. The update is rolling out to all users and will reach everyone within this month.
