It's been a while since WhatsApp started testing a new feature. This is the possibility of listening to audio in the background. However, until now the feature had been limited to beta versions of the messaging application.
However, the notes of the latest update of WhatsApp on iOS confirms that this function will be reaching all iPhone users today, as reported by 9to5Mac. With version 22.4.75 of the application, you will be able to listen to voice notes and audio files outside of the chat sender. In this way, you will be able to continue communicating with the rest of your contacts while you listen to the received audios.
WhatsApp voice memos have been getting a lot of new things. A few weeks ago the application launched a new function that allowed us to pause and resume audio recording. In addition, now we can also listen to our own audio before sending it in case we want to verify our words. This is a feature that has been available for a while now on Telegram; but at last the Meta messaging app is getting its act together.
Of course, in order to try this new feature you will have to update your app from the iOS App Store. So far, the feature has only been released for iPhone users, although it is quite likely that it will come to Android soon. Also, keep in mind that the proposal may not be available even if you update, since WhatsApp will be gradually activating it among its user base, so it may take some time until you can use it. on your mobile.
WhatsApp continues to include improvements
What's new in WhatsApp With version 22.2.75, WhatsApp introduced a lot of improvements to its iPhone version. Now, if your mobile has iOS 15 onwards, the application will offer support for Focus Mode . Also, when a message arrives, the notification icon was replaced with the profile picture of the person writing; a quite useful feature that adds aesthetic value to the app.
In addition, there is a way in which you can listen to WhatsApp audios without the other person knowing; a most useful function when we do not want to reveal our connection status. Also, the application released an update a couple of weeks ago that corrected a dangerous vulnerability in its code; so if you haven't updated, it's time to do it.
WhatsApp is testing the inclusion of reactions in its application. If you don't know what it is, they are those emojis with which we can respond to a specific message without having to write; and that are currently available in various apps such as Facebook Messenger, Instagram, Slack and more. Now, it seems that very soon WhatsApp will join this list.
