Voice messages are very popular on WhatsApp. For those who prefer speaking to typing, there is now the practical option of sharing them in WhatsApp status. However, the corresponding function is not immediately obvious.
WhatsApp: More options in status
It was already clear in January 2023 that WhatsApp would add voice messages to the status. But how this works and what you have to do for it will only become known many months later. If you want to share voice messages in your status, you have to make some adjustments.
Because unlike, for example, in groups or chats, voice messages have a time limit in their status. If you want to use the practical function, you have to press the button for 30 seconds and then you can talk for half a minute. Otherwise, it doesn't take much to use the function. Just follow the instructions:
How to use voice messages in status:
- Open the app and go to the status tab.
- Tap the pen icon.
- Press and hold the record button and start recording your voice.
WhatsApp can still do that
The messenger gets new functions on a regular basis. There were several announcements in January alone. Haptic feedback was introduced for WhatsApp chats. There was also an improvement in the internal chat search for users. Or do you already know the three most important security settings for WhatsApp?
