WhatsApp is not deterred by current criticism of the new terms of use and continues to work diligently on its messenger. With new design elements like this and new features, the goal is to convince users not to switch to Telegram, Signal and Co. One trick can save a lot of time. We will show you how.
Popular functionality gets even better
Those who use WhatsApp mainly send text messages and images. With both, everything is quickly told and shown. Another function, on the other hand, divides users: voice messages. Some find them practical and use them excessively, while others would prefer to get rid of them. The function is ingeniously simple and can be compared to an answering machine – a voice message that the recipient can listen to at any time. If you don’t have time to type a message on WhatsApp, but don’t want to make a phone call, you often use voice messages.

This is where WhatsApp comes into play with its built-in feature in 2021. Why: All Android and iPhone users can play voice messages at a faster rate. And not only on your smartphone, but also on WhatsApp Web.
Here’s how the turbo trick on WhatsApp works
While playing a voice message, you can tap a button next to the progress bar to speed it up. Besides the simple, WhatsApp also offers 1.5 and 2 times the speed. A 30-second voice message would only take 15 seconds to be heard at full speed.

The use? Extremely high
The question that many are probably asking is: do you need a feature that doubles the speed of a voice message? With short 10-second voice messages, it probably doesn’t matter. But there are people who also speak into their cell phone microphone for two minutes and then send their monologue via WhatsApp. Here the time savings would be one minute. This saves a huge amount of time for people who receive a lot of voice messages.
