WhatsApp is said to be working on improving the voice messaging experience with longer recordings and a global voice message player.
WhatsApp beta for both iOS and Android is bringing a better voice messaging experience. Some WhatsApp users have received the so-called Global Voice Note Player. This lets you play the voice chats on other screens of WhatsApp or over other apps too. That is you can listen to the voice message even when Whatsapp is minimized. We have screenshots of the feature, courtesy of WaBetaInfo.
If you are running WhatsApp Messenger beta for iOS 22.1.72 or WhatsApp Business beta for iOS 22.1.72 or WhatsApp beta for Android 2.22.7.11, you should have this feature. Even if you are not on the WhatsApp beta program, you are likely to get it on the regular app soon.
How WhatsApp Global Voice Note Player Works

Once you are on a compatible WhatsApp version, simply open the chat in which there is a Voice Message, and tap to play it.
Now, while it’s playing, you can swipe or move back to the WhatsApp home screen and the voice note will be playing.

You’ll see a small banner at the top with the playback controls like the play/pause button and a close button. The playback position will also be shown right beneath the player bar.
Heck, even if you leave WhatsApp and move to the device homescreen or to other apps on your phone, the voice chat will still be playing for as long it takes.

In related news, WaBetaInfo reports that WhatsApp for iOS will be getting a new chat list design wherein both Broadcast and New Group options will be moved from WhatsApp main screen to the “Start New Chat” menu (accessible by clicking on the Note icon at the top right corner).
So, if you are a stable WhatsApp user, we advise you to be a bit patient and if you are a beta Whatsapp participant, then, you may wait to check out what else the company has in store for you.
