After the update that introduced pause and resume voice notes to beta testers, WhatsApp is now releasing some improvements when receiving messages. In particular, when the app is minimized and you receive a message, there is something new within the notification view:
As you can see in this screenshot, it is now possible to enter a reply to the incoming message right within the notification view.
