Voice message users say they improve communication. Have you tried it?
Voice messages, also known as voice memos, voice texts or voice notes, are the perfect hybrid between efficiency and conversation. Think of it this way: If two modes of exchanging information — voicemail and texting — had a child, it would be voice messages.
Forget fat-fingering texts and wasting time trying to undo autocorrect. Now you record your thoughts and send them in an instant, quickly conveying your mood. Sure, you could call, but that’s only if you have the time to participate in small talk. It can be tricky to set aside time for a phone conversation, especially during the workday when you’re just trying to relay a bite-sized amount of information.
Research shows us that listening to someone’s voice can help us process “paralinguistic cues,” like vocal pitch, intonation and speech rate, which aren’t possible to receive in a traditional text. Think of these as cues to how people feel, like when someone is speaking quickly because they’re excited or emphasizing certain words when conveying meaning.
For some, the COVID-19 pandemic might have catapulted them into using this method of communication, even though it’s been around for longer than that. iMessage launched the voice messages feature back in 2014, but they weren’t as convenient to use or as popular back then. The Etiquette Behind Voice Texting Where texting can sometimes misconstrue meaning and even make some matters worse, voice notes can help eliminate gray areas. Use voice notes when you need to convey nuance or emotion.
