at the end of last year WhatsApp created a new audio recorderin which for the first time you could stop the recording to listen to the messages before sending them, but once the recording was stopped, it only gave you two options: delete the voicemail or send it.
Now, thanks to the latest WhatsApp beta, we find a third option: resume recordingwhich finally allows us record voice memo in multiple takes.
So you can pause a recording with WhatsApp Beta
The change made by WhatsApp in its latest beta version is to replace the stop button with the pause. Tapping on the new button, we see how it becomes the icon of a microphone for resume recording.
In this way we can temporarily suspend the recording to resume it later, which is very useful when we do not want any sound or noise to appear on the recording that will interrupt this voice message, or when we become empty and have to think about what we want to say. , something that solves the power record note in chunks in a single audio message. By pausing the recording we can also listen to what we have already recorded.
In the following animation we can see the operation of this novelty, which does not have much mystery. Of course, it will only be available if we block the recording to save the audio note without having to keep our finger pressed.
If you haven’t signed up for the WhatsApp beta program because it’s full, you can update to the latest beta from APK Mirror or WhatsApp.com/android. This novelty should arrive to all via the stable version of WhatsApp in a few weeks.
