Instagram has been updated with the ability to send voice messages in Direct. The company announced the feature in a tweet earlier today.
Starting today, you can send voice messages in Direct. Talk the way you want to be heard, whether by whispering what you’re up to or shouting a compliment.
You can download Instagram from the App Store for free.
