WhatsApp may soon allow users to share voice notes as status updates

San Francisco: Meta-owned messaging platform WhatsApp is said to be working on voice statuses on iOS beta for an upcoming iOS update.

It gives users the ability to share voice notes to update their status, as reported by WABetaInfo.

According to the report, the microphone icon will show up when the user doesn’t enter any text, and it will allow the user to post a voice note for up to 30 seconds to update their status.

Last month, the messaging platform rolled out the business tools tab on iOS beta.

This feature makes it easy for users to access all the messaging tools available to businesses without opening WhatsApp Settings.

A new tab called ‘Tools’ will replace the old camera tab if the feature is enabled for the user’s account.

The business tools tab feature has been released to some businesses after installing the latest update of WhatsApp Business beta from TestFlight.
