Description

Modern messengers have the opportunity to send, audio file, it is convenient, because it consumes less traffic than audio call.

In the Tox Protocol, not have this, but we can use the file sending function instead and set the default auto reception in the client.

Plus

Ability to transfer an audio file when holding the microphone button and listen at any time.

Minus

Automatic reception can be unsafe, But we always get files from a trusted list of people. need to limit the file size for voice file, example not more < 1 GB need make notification for media file

What Need for this?

Button start record audio Timer audio Function send audio Notification new audio file

I had this in my backlog, but I must've forgotten to add an issue for it. The plan is to add it after audio calls are in. I can use the same infrastructure for them that way.
