WhatsApp voice messages are very popular but they’ve always been associated with the fear that you can’t listen back to what you’ve said.

WhatsApp said: “Now you can preview your voice message on WhatsApp before you send it, perfect for those moments when you want to get your message just right.”

Not only will you be able to listen back to your message but you can also use the hands-free recording for longer messages and speed up playback.

How to preview WhatsApp voice notes

Open the chat you want to send the message in, touch the microphone and slide up to lock in the hands-free recording feature.

Start speaking and once you’ve finished click stop.

You can then click play and listen back to the recording.

You’ll also be able to pick any part of the recording to listen back to by tapping on the line.

To speed up your playback, click the 1x icon while the message is playing.

If you want to record again, tap the trash can and do the same steps again.

If you’re happy you can just click send.
