Voice messages!
It’s a bit hard to get your excitement or instructions across when sending written messages so I think voice messaging would be a great addition. I’ve had clients reach out to me this way on IG and the response is much more fluid.
Hi everyone,
Thanks for your great suggestion! We’re marking this idea as completed! You can learn more about it in this blog post or in this help article.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You and your client MUST be on app version v.7.114.0 in order for the voice message function to work on mobile. It will not work otherwise. Certain Custom branded apps are still rolling out, but you should be getting it shortly if you haven’t so far.
Few important things you should know about voice messages feature:
- Voice messages are available in DMs, and Groups, and both on Web and Mobile.
- You have 2 ways of sending voice message:
-Tap, Hold to Record and Release to send
-Tap, Hold, Swipe up to lock for hands free, Record hands free and Tap to send
- Length of voice message is up to 5min long.
- You have ability to speed up the voice message to up to 2x.
- Voice messages in groups are off by default for clients, but you can turn it on in the settings.
- Just like any other message you can delete voice message.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please note below items we are aware of an working on. We don’t have precise ETA yet for it:
- User can’t start new thread with a voice message - currently in development and we will be releasing this fix soon
- Trainer can’t turn off voice messages for clients in DMs - on the roadmap no ETA at the moment but you can vote for this idea here as we will be regularly checking demand for this which will help us prioritize this feature.

YES YES YES! having the video option is great but its only 1 min, I've used audio via the SMS app but having this in the Trainerize app to send as a message would be great. I would use it all the time. 100% on board and would love to see this come to life as soon as possible. thanks!

This would be super helpful. I like being able to send voice messages so clients can here my excitement when they do check ins etc.
and much easier then having to type everything out. Plus it’s just much more personal! -

Great idea!

It’s really disappointing that you still don’t have the voice note option for clients. It would take a lot of pressure off to be able to send a voice note to my clients, and also provide a very personal touch. When do you plan to implement this?

This would help us eliminate using WhatsApp for client communication and move pretty much everything over to Trainerize!
