Reorganize Voice Message to Push-to-Talk mode #2026

Open ankar84 opened 4 years ago

Our users complain about how current Voice Message function works. If user tap a microphone icon by accident (for example) and then minimized app to background, voice message recording will continue, but most android smartphones will not show any notification about that recording. MIUI of Xiaomi can show notification about microphone usage by backgrounded application. And iOS shows similar notification, but most smartphones not. So in that case some confidential audio information can be sent to somebody. As a solution, I suggest 2 ways that problem can be silved:

  1. Reorganize Voice Message to Push-to-Talk mode, how is it implemented WhatsApp and Telegram (Recommended)
  2. If Voice message still recording if an application is minimized to background - application should show recording progress in notification area (like most audio players do)
