First of all, we understand that perhaps what we are going to tell you is obvious to many. However, we have been able to verify that there are users who still do not know that this possibility exists That is why we have decided to make this quick tutorial.
Cancel an audio message
It can happen that we change our mind about an audio message when we are already recording it. Or that we make a mistake about something and want to start over.In any case, the two versions of the app for iOS and Android allow you to cancel the message and start again.
As we know, to start the WhatsApp audio message we just have to click on the microphone icon. While we keep our finger pressed, the message will be recorded It is normal that many people do not look at the screen while it is recording. However, if you do, you'll be met with a little text that reads "Swipe to cancel" ("Swipe to cancel on Apple's version).
This icon gives us the freedom to know that we can rectify our decision to write an audio message at any time during the recording. What we have to do is, in effect, slide your finger to the left Make sure you don't release it until you reach the end, because then the message could be sent.
On Apple, the message will simply disappear, as if it never happened. If we are on an Android phone, we will see how the microphone icon goes into a trash can, staging its disappearance. Either way, you'll have to start recording from scratch
You know, from now on an ugly outside noise or throat clearing doesn't have to bother your audio. Just slide the finger to the left, and repeat as many times as necessary, until recording the message to your liking.
