In an announcement on Wednesday, WhatsApp said it would float out a few improvements to its voice messaging features in the coming week.
Along with the ability to listen to a message while reading other chats and play messages at 1.5 or 2 times speed, the experience of recording messages is also improving. WhatsApp now lets you pause and resume your recording, so you don’t have to leave large gaps of silence if you’re thinking of what to say next or redo a recording if you need to have a brief conversation in real life.

Users will also be able to listen to a message before you send it to make sure you didn’t accidentally get cut off or include something you didn’t want to. Apart from these functional updates, there’s also a design update.
Instead of just using a line to show your voice message playback progress, WhatsApp will now use a waveform of the actual message. Plus, WhatsApp can remember where you were when you paused the playback and let you start playing back from that point again so you don’t have to re-listen to an entire message.
Going ahead with the fresh updates, WhatsApp will be rolling out these six new features to all its users in the coming weeks.
