How to record a voice message in WhatsApp without holding your finger down - in detail?
Recording a voice message on WhatsApp typically requires you to hold down the microphone button, but there are alternative methods that allow you to record hands-free. One of the most effective ways is by using a third-party app or feature available on certain devices.
For iPhone users with iOS 13 or later, Apple introduced a feature called Voice Control, which enables you to use your voice to control your device. To set up Voice Control for WhatsApp:
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
- Navigate to Accessibility > Voice Control.
- Toggle Voice Control on.
- In the Voice Control settings, tap Customize Commands.
- Add a custom command, such as "Start Recording" and assign it to open WhatsApp and start recording a voice message.
- Similarly, add another command like "Stop Recording" to stop the recording.
Once set up, you can simply say your custom commands to start and stop recording without having to hold down any buttons.
For Android users, there are several third-party apps that can be used for hands-free recording. One popular app is called "Voice Recorder" by SmartMob. To use it with WhatsApp:
- Download and install the Voice Recorder app from the Google Play Store.
- Open the Voice Recorder app and start a new recording.
- Once you're done, save the recording to your device.
- Go to WhatsApp and select the contact or group where you want to send the voice message.
- Tap on the microphone icon to open the attachment menu.
- Select Document from the list of attachments.
- Find the saved recording in your file manager and select it.
- Finally, tap Send to deliver the voice message hands-free.
Both methods allow you to record voice messages on WhatsApp without having to hold down the microphone button, making the process more convenient and accessible.
