WhatsApp is preparing the arrival of 6 new features in WhatsApp audio to launch them soon, most of which we have already talked about on more than one occasion, but it is now that the developers announce their imminent launch for all users.
Probably, you already have some of the new features that we are going to detail below for some time, the novelty is that WhatsApp officially announces them for everyone and they will be arriving over the next few weeks to all versions of the app.
This means that you will see the new WhatsApp audio features in the mobile versions of the app, in WhatsApp Web and also in WhatsApp Desktop, in the case of the first two it would be enough to update the application soon to enjoy them.
Audio playback outside the chat
One of the first novelties that we already saw at the time was the possibility that all users who use WhatsApp will have to play an audio without being in the conversation , that is, it will not be necessary to stay in the chat to listen to it.
You could play the audio and in the meantime browse other WhatsApp conversations, adjust certain parameters of the app and other things, although you must do everything without leaving the app, instead you will see the player that plays the audio at the top of the app
wave visualization
Another novelty that I have reached some WhatsApp users is a new visualization that appears in WhatsApp audios. You’ll see a waveform representation of the audio itself appear, but that’s just aesthetic and nothing more.
This novelty has reached some people and not others, it was available for a while in the beta version and later it has been arriving, but the novelty is that WhatsApp plans to launch it soon in all its applications and versions to see the waves everywhere.
Pause and continue audio recording
Another feature that will soon be available in all versions of WhatsApp is the ability to start an audio recording and pause it and then continue it whenever you want or can, without having to start a new recording, something that was not possible until now.
This novelty is useful because it is not always clear to you that you are going to record and until now you have the option to stop a recording, but with the inconvenience that the audio is “closed” and you cannot continue recording in it, but you have to record a new one.
Listen to audio before sending
Soon and for everyone you will be able to listen to a complete audio before sending it, so you can make sure that what you have recorded is what you really want the recipient of your WhatsApp audio to receive, something that many users do not have so far.
Until now, this possibility did not exist, but with the arrival of the novelty, the user will be able to listen to the audio before it is sent, if he is satisfied, he would send it, otherwise he would have the option to delete it and record another new.
Continue listening to audio
Another very useful novelty is the possibility that you will have to be able to resume listening to any audio that has been sent to you if you left it halfway the last time. The next time you leave the chat without listening to the entire audio and return, you will be able to listen to what is left.
This means that WhatsApp will not force you to listen to it from the beginning, and it will be very useful for cases of longer audios because that way you will not have to move the player tab to put it right at the moment where you no longer listened to it, that makes everything easier .
Playback of forwarded audio at 1.5x and 2x
The different speeds that allow you to listen to a normal WhatsApp audio are extended to the forwarded audios, so you can also speed up all the audios that are forwarded to you and listen to them at a higher speed. Specifically, 1.5x and 2x speeds are added.
Although there is no confirmed date when all these news related to WhatsApp audio will arrive, the company has announced that they should appear in the coming weeks through a new application update, so you should be attentive.
