JAKARTA Since it was first launched, the voice note feature or voice message for WhatsApp status can only record sound up to 30 seconds. However, the feature has been updated and its duration changed to 60 seconds. Found first by WABetaInfo, changes in the duration of voice messages for this status can be seen once the WhatsApp application is updated. Users can immediately open the Update tab, click the pencil icon on the camera icon, then press the voice icon. When pressed, users will see that the duration starts from 60 seconds. During recording the voice, users must keep pressing the icon until the recording is over. When the recording is complete, users can listen to the results first. Although many WhatsApp users are more comfortable using voice message features in the chat room, these updates remain useful for some users. This duration will further clarify the information they want to convey. Unfortunately, all users should update their WhatsApp application to listen to 60 seconds of voice messages uploaded by other users. Without updating, voice messages will not be able to play.

For users already using the latest WhatsApp versions on Android and iOS, this update will be directly visible in the app. However, for users who haven't seen the update, they must first install the update. Although it's updated to the latest version, some users may not see a change in the duration of the voice message feature for status. The reason is, this feature is still rolling out in stages until the next few days.
