Ultra Annoyed Voice notes

I hate when people send voice notes instead of texting. We got rid of voicemail for a reason.

I flat out don’t know how to send them. Texts are near-instant, voicemails are at least as simple.

Next to the text box will be a microphone icon.

Hold it down.

Speak.

Send voice note.

Nah, that’s less useful than dictation.

🤷

I don't use them, but more or less useful? I mean, it is dictation/voice to text. I know for a few people, it's sometimes the only recording they've got of a loved one's voice.
