    I hate voice messages, can we please not have those? They’re impossible to search and I can’t read them immediately.

      I agree with you. There is no way to search voice messages. But I think a lot of people will enjoy this feature.

        As I’ve never used WhatsApp I use Skype to stay in touch with my family. 10yrs later my sis recently found out that it supports VM, too. I wish she’d never found that feature. 😬

      I agree, they’re annoying. They’re necessary to reach more people and gain popularity though

        It’s also an accessibility thing. Many illiterate people use voice messages in apps like WhatsApp to communicate with their friends.
