Community members can now record and send voice notes directly in posts and comments - a faster, more expressive way to communicate without typing long replies.
What changed
Record Voice Notes
A new mic button in the post and comment composer lets members record voice notes on the spot. Record, pause, resume, or cancel before sending - all inline, without leaving the editor.
In addition to recording, members can upload audio files alongside images, videos, and other attachments. Multiple audio files can be attached to a single post.
Inline playback
Voice notes and audio files play directly in the feed - in both posts and comments. Recorded notes display a waveform view, while uploaded audio shows a timeline view. Playback speed can be toggled between 1x, 1.5x, and 2x, and audio autoplays to the next track for a continuous listening experience.
Why this matters
Voice notes give members a faster, more personal way to share updates, give feedback, or reply to discussions, without needing to type long responses or switch to a separate chat tool. Also, voice messages are a better form of expression, as sometimes the text messages are just not enough!
