technology advance is a very fast way, sometimes they can be good for someone, while at the same time are not really love by others. It is also what I experience on some of the innovation on some of the chatting app out there.
Over here in my country Whatsapp is one of the most popular chatting that is being used by most of the people in the country. While the latest addition like stories is really loved by some of the people, I don't really like it. I just don't know why as I think there are already too many social media out there that already offer the same feature, I don't want to have them inmy chatting app. But maybe not many that don't like them, because it is still there which means that by the metric it enable the user to stay in the app a lot longer.
The other thing that I don't really like is the voice note. I mean, if I want to hear their voice in real time, I would call them directly rather than using the chat.
The other reason is that I like to use the text chat because when I am outside, the things that in my chat could have more privacy as there will be fewer creeps out there who would peek into your phone while I type or read my chat right? compared that to voice note, unless you are using a headphones that what is in the voice chat will be open for people to hear.
yes you can set it at low level sound, but it would be so awkward to hold the phone too close, when you don't take the call right?
So how often do you use the voice note? I tend to stay away from it.
