MENLO PARK – Facebook-owned social messaging service WhatsApp is rolling out new beta version 2.18.102 with much-awaited ‘lock microphone button’ for Androiders.
The new update, which was first reported by Wabetainfo, allows users to record the voice message by holding mic button and then by swiping up to lock it.
Users can still cancel the recording and delete the file without sending.
Previously, WhatsApp users were required to press and hold recording button until they were done recording their voice message.
