Voice Messages is an option found on many chat systems. From iMessages, Facebook Messenger and until WhatsApp, the microphone button is present next to the text field.
Voice Messages is used to send voice messages (audio recordings) conversation partners, which they can listen to at any time.
In the current version of WhatsApp Messenger for iPhone and Android, the option can be used by pressing and holding the microphone button until the recording is complete.
In the near future, Facebook, the company that owns the WhatsApp application, intends to add a new option that will allow the user to record voice messages without having to hold down the "microphone" button. All he has to do is press the voice recording button and make a swipe from the bottom up to lock the option. "Slide to lock". While recording the voice message, you will be able to navigate through the conversation, without the recording being stopped.
At the moment this feature is only available for developers, but in the near future, all WhatsApp users will be able to benefit from the new option.
