It has been in news for quite some while now that Whatsapp might include a playback option for audio messages (that Telegram users have been enjoying from a long time now) which basically allows the users to listen to their voice messages at whatever speed they like, whether slow or fast. This feature was spotted by WABetaInfo that tracks the Facebook owned messaging app and its upcoming updates.
📝 WhatsApp beta for Android 2.21.6.11: what’s new?
— WABetaInfo (@WABetaInfo) March 18, 2021
WhatsApp is working on 3 different playback speeds for voice messages, with a nice UI!
The feature is under development and it will be available later for iOS and Android beta builds.

Even though Whatsapp’s rival app Telegram launched this feature back in 2018, with allowing users to play their audio messages over a speed of 2x. This feature will be rolled out for Whatsapp users soon. The report posted by WABetaInfo says that this feature is still out in the testing but it will for sure be available with the company’s next update for Android and iOS operating system apps. This feature isn’t something which Whatsapp came by its own, so it will be very interesting to see how the messaging app will execute this plan in its platform.
Whatsapp recently has a new policy update rolled out which got the company to face a huge public outburst on the beginning of 2021 and not only from one country but from all over the world. Whatsapp has given their users time to go through the policy updates slowly but till May 15th all of the app’s users will have to accept the conditions otherwise the app will block those users from messaging or calling from the platform.
