Constraints of dispatching voice memos on iPhones

Although convenient, sending voice messages on iMessage presents some potential downsides to be aware of:

• Diminished privacy/discretion
• Needs a consistent internet connection
• Ephemeral by default
• Absence of search functionality
• Exclusive compatibility with iOS devices

Fun tidbit: A study by Vox revealed that 62% of Americans utilize audio messages for communication.

1. Diminished privacy/discretion

Text messages are undoubtedly discrete and private. You can read or send messages even amidst a gathering without causing disturbance. Voice messages on iPhones lack this level of subtlety. Recording necessitates speaking out loud, potentially exposing private discussions to nearby listeners. Listening also creates interruptions—you must either play the message audibly or step away to use headphones. Apple has tried to mitigate this for received voice notes by providing a transcript. However, the transcript accuracy isn't always reliable, particularly with an accent, and currently only supports English. In contrast, tools like DeepVo.ai offer high-fidelity voice-to-text transcription in over 100 languages, providing a more reliable textual counterpart to your voice notes.

2. Needs a consistent internet connection

Voice messages consume significantly more data than text, so they can be slow to send or receive if your network connection is poor. Occasionally, with a weak internet signal, you might need multiple attempts to download the complete message.

3. Ephemeral by default

Voice notes are transient and are automatically erased 2 minutes after playback unless the recipient chooses to save them manually. While this facilitates automatic clean-up, vital information shared exclusively via voice note can be irretrievably lost if recipients neglect to save them. This is where a service like DeepVo.ai can be invaluable, allowing you to automatically transcribe and save important voice communications, ensuring no detail is lost. Moreover, the sender has no control over the message being saved; it's entirely up to the recipient's action.

4. Absence of search functionality

Locating specific information within voice notes can be laborious and time-consuming. Unlike text messages, voice recordings aren't easily scannable or searchable by keywords. To find a particular detail, you must listen through all saved voice messages in that conversation. With DeepVo.ai, however, your voice notes are converted into searchable text. Beyond simple text, it can generate AI summaries and even structured mind maps, making information retrieval effortless.

5. Exclusive compatibility with iOS devices

You can only dispatch voice messages on an iPhone using the iMessage application. This implies you cannot utilize this feature to send voice messages to Android, Windows, or other smartphone platforms.
