How to send voice notes with Telegram

Telegram has become one of the most popular apps on the market . It stands out for the fact that it offers us a huge amount of features, which allows it to continue to gain followers in the market. Through the app we can be in contact with our friends and family, with whom we can send text messages. In addition, the application has introduced the ability to make calls, video calls and we can send files.

In these chats, we can also send audio notes. The way we can send audio notes on Telegram has evolved remarkably over time. Fortunately, this has been a change for the better, as nowadays it's much easier to be able to send an audio note in the app. Before we had to use other tools, but now it's possible directly in the app.

How to send a voice note on Telegram

In the application chats we have the possibility to use microphone icon , as is the case in WhatsApp. Therefore, if you want to send an audio note in the app, you just need to enter the chat and hold down this icon. You must hold down while recording this note, so it is important to remember this, to avoid problems in this regard while recording. This option can also be used in the desktop version of the application.

There is a second way in Telegram that allows us to send an audio note. In the application settings, by sliding the side menu at the beginning, we can enter the Chat settings section. In this section we find an option called Raise to talk . When activating this option, we will only have to lift the mobile to bring it closer to you and thus be able to start recording an audio note, in a very comfortable way. We can choose between one of these two options to send these voice notes.

Share audio from Telegram to Whatsapp

It is possible that at some point we recorded an audio note in Telegram and sent it to someone. But we also want to share this note with another person on WhatsApp. In this sense, the only way we have, which is simple, is to download said audio note , to be able to send it later on WhatsApp as a normal file.

Therefore, press and hold said audio file in Telegram chat and download this audio note. Although this, you will have to do it in the desktop version of the application, where it is possible to download it to the computer. Then you will have to send it by WhatsApp, which you can do using whatsapp web, because it will be easier that way. All you need to do is attach the audio note and it can be sent to someone else. It's a process that is not complicated, but in the end it is heavier than it should be.

What to do if the microphone does not appear in Telegram

You might want to use audio notes in Telegram, but when you enter the app, you don't get the microphone icon anywhere. There can be multiple reasons why this is happening, but either way, they can still be fixed. Here are some of the solutions that we should consider in any case:

• App permissions : You may have denied access to the application's microphone. Therefore, check this permission in Android settings and find out if this is the problem. If they didn't have permission, you just need to grant it. When you're done, close the app and sign back in. You can force it to stop, so that it restarts completely.
• Update : you may be using an older version of Telegram or had a problem with it. Updating the app to its latest version is in many cases the way to resolve this type of issue.
• Clear Cache : A common solution, but in many cases it gives us the performance we want. We can clear the cache of an app like Telegram because files may have accumulated and cause problems. Once the cache is cleared, we restart the app and the icon should be back.
• Click on the square icon : In Telegram chats, in the space where we write the message, it is likely that we will not see the microphone icon, but another square icon will appear on the right side. If we click once on it, the microphone icon appears, so that we can record.

With these solutions, it is normal for the app to show us this microphone icon and we can send audio notes anytime with full normality.

Other reasons why you can't send audio to Telegram

There are times when this problem not only affect the microphone icon . But you probably can't send audio notes on Telegram. The origin of this is diverse, in fact some of the solutions from the previous section can be applied in this direction, so that everything works normally. The reasons can be varied:

• Multimedia volume : It is likely that the multimedia volume on Android is not configured correctly, which is not the volume for calls. Therefore, verify that the volume is correct, as this might be something that is causing the problem.
• Update : There may be a failure in Telegram, so updating the app is something that will prevent this failure and everything to work fine.
• Clear Cache : It is likely that some cache files are corrupted, causing problems in the operation of the application. Emptying the cache, which we can do from the Android settings in the apps section, should resolve the failure.
• Authorizations: Double check that Telegram has the necessary permissions to function properly and for us to send audio notes. Some permissions may be missing, preventing us from sending them.
