How to send a voice message on Instagram?
Instagram has added voice messaging capabilities to its direct messaging. Thanks to new updates on iOS and Android, users can now use the app to send one-minute audio messages in private and group chats.
If you hold down the microphone button, your message will be sent as soon as you release the button. If you want to start over, drag your finger to the trash can. This feature is very similar to the version available on Facebook.
