PAUSE AND RESUME
WhatsApp has released the ability to pause and resume voice recordings on WhatsApp Desktop and WhatsApp for iOS some time ago, but no news was available for Android. After the release of the new WhatsApp beta for Android 2.22.6.7 update, people that can already see voice waveforms when recording a voice note can finally pause them too!
In a previous update, you could only stop recording the voice note but, as you can see in this screenshot, WhatsApp has now introduced a new pause button: after tapping the pause button, you can see that it's finally possible to resume recording the voice note!
This feature has been released to certain beta testers today, and it is also available after installing the new WhatsApp Business beta for Android 2.22.6.7 update. If you don't see the new pause and resume feature while recording voice notes, it means your WhatsApp account is not ready. In this case, you will receive the feature when a future update is released, because WhatsApp is used to releasing it day by day.
