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.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We’re returning your vote to you so please come back to ideas.trainerize.com to add your vote to other ideas.
Thanks!

This would be such a game changer! Communication is key and I'd love to have everything in one app instead of using a second one such as whatsapp to send voice messages.

I like to use VOXER as a voice note service. Press and hold a button and then you can speak your feedback.
If trainerize could have the same I would be able to use everything in one place.

We need this feature right now! It will give a much more personalized experience to our clients + it’s much easier for us trainers if don’t have to write long messages all the time. Please make this a priority!

For being a trainer app, this should be the #1 priority.
Communication is EVERYTHING.
It’s not a professional experience when we have to message our clients on Instagram or voxer to give a more personable experience.
I love the fact that you can comment on all their accomplished meats and auto message but its just a little outdated.

Voice is much more effective at communicating and representing a better tone than guessing through text with many conversations especially for more important topics between you and the client.

Yes!! This would be an amazing add on! I'm currently using Facebook messenger for this reason alone

This would be great - I currently use Voxer, but I have a client that hates apps and refuses to install another one. Having an included feature along the same lines I think would streamline the process.
