How to send a Voice Message on iPhone or iPad

Don’t have time to send a text?  Send a VOICE MESSAGE instead.

Here’s how:

1. Open the Messages app.
2. Tap on the A apps icon.
3. Tap on the Blue Audio (wave) icon. 
4. To start recording an audio voice message, tap on the red microphone button and begin speaking.
5. When finished recording, tap on the same stop button.
6. Tap on the blue send arrow to send the voice message as usual.
7. Optionally, tap on the play button to listen to the recording first and then do step #6 to send it.
8. That’s it. 

The person receiving the message will get a PLAY icon to be able to listen to the message.
