WhatsApp, one of the world’s most used instant messaging services, has opened its “voice status” feature to everyone. The “voice status” feature, which was first introduced on February 7, 2023, can now be used by everyone on iOS and Android. So how to record a voice status? To record a voice status update, it is enough to press and hold the audio icon on the status sharing page and record.

WhatsApp “voice status” can be useful for quick status updates

WhatsApp, which is constantly evolving, officially states the following for this feature: “We’re introducing the ability to record and share voice messages up to 30 seconds on WhatsApp status. Voice status can be used for sending more personal updates, especially if you feel more comfortable expressing yourself by talking rather than typing.” It is thought that most people will not prefer the feature, but there will still be fans.

More than one new feature is on the way for WhatsApp. For example, as shared by WABetaInfo, the service is developing “live screen sharing during video calls”. The feature can be tested by some users in the 2.23.10.4 beta for Android. It allows people to show everything on their screen to the other party during the call. This is a great convenience for certain situations. It is not yet known when the feature will be available to everyone.

A remarkable innovation was also on the agenda before this for the platform. Again, as far as WABetaInfo found, the company started actively testing the username feature in the latest beta versions. With this feature, people will be able to set custom usernames for their accounts. WhatsApp will make an addition to the personal profile settings for this. WhatsApp has already pleased many users with this step.
