Spoken digital note
An audio message is a recorded voice communication sent digitally, typically through messaging apps or social media.
Unlike a phone call, it's asynchronous—the recipient listens when convenient: I sent her an audio message because it was easier than typing.
Audio messages preserve tone and nuance that text lacks, making them popular for personal communication.
