WhatsApp for Android just made it easier for users to record voice messages on their devices. Before today's update, users were required to press and hold on the microphone to record a message. This has never been a comfortable experience for me, as I found it hard to keep my finger in place.
With today's update, WhatsApp is making that a tad easier. Users will still need to tap and hold on the microphone icon to record short messages. However, they will now have the ability to swipe up to "lock recording" and record both short or long messages. Personally, that's a great addition.
Head over to Google Play Store to grab this update to enjoy this new voice recording feature.
Users of Viber for Android are in for a treat in the last update as they will be able preview and view YouTube videos in a chat message. While this update is nothing major, it's more like Viber catching up with competition from WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger. So when Viber users will receive a link to a YouTube video, Viber will show a preview of the video and users will get all the options to play, pause, forward or rewind the video within the app.
Another addition to Viber is the ability to know whenViber "contacts were last seen online." Of course, like any updates, Viber also gets some bug fixes and improvements.
Viber Messenger is free for download free on Google Play Store.
