The new voice messaging feature has been found in WhatsApp for iOS and WhatsApp Business for iOS beta version 22.1.72.
WhatsApp has begun beta testing the anticipated global voice message player for iOS, which will allow some iPhone users to continue listening to their voice messages even while switching between chats.
Voice messages can now be played in the background so that users can listen to them immediately from the chats screen of the app. WhatsApp Business for iOS, in addition to WhatsApp for iOS, has been spotted testing the new voice messaging feature with some beta testers ahead of its availability for the masses.
According to WhatsApp beta tracker WABetaInfo, whatsApp for iOS beta version 22.1.72 has enabled the global voice message player for some users,. Its appearance has been reported on Twitter by a few beta testers. On WhatsApp Business for iOS version 22.1.72, the feature is claimed to be rolling out to some beta testers.
When a user leaves the chat in which they received the message, WhatsApp normally stops playing the voice message.
According to WABetaInfo, even if you're using the most recent beta version, there are chances that you won't be able to listen to your voice messages if you switch to a different chat. It's possible due to the fact that the feature is currently only available to some beta testers.
In October of last year, WhatsApp was first seen working on a global voice message player for iOS. Earlier this week, the feature supposedly looked to be under testing for Android users.
The exact date that the global voice message player will be available in the public version of WhatsApp for iOS is yet unknown. WhatsApp may also bring some changes to the feature at the time of its arrival to general users.
For the last few months, WhatsApp has been working on improving the voice message experience on its app. Last month, the Meta-owned company introduced a voice message preview feature that allows users to listen to recordings before sending them to their contacts. It also recently began testing waveforms for voice messages and offered the ability to change the playback speed of audio messages.
