The new features of Google Messages will leave you speechless (or rather the opposite).

Google is implementing improvements in the audio features of its messaging app: Google Messages. Among the improvements, animated emoji backgrounds are included to reflect moods in audios and a redesign of the audio recording interface. According to 9to5Google, beta users will be the first to try them.

The voice recording interface now features a noise cancellation function, improving the quality of recordings on Android devices. Accessing this new interface is as easy as tapping the wave button in the bottom right corner of the conversation. With this redesign, you will still be able to send audio by holding down the button, with an option to lock the action and allow you to comfortably record your voice.

The new interface allows you to view the waveform of the audio while recording, and includes controls to restart, stop or attach the recording, as well as a useful on/off switch in noisy environments. In addition, the Voice Moods have been added: animated emoji backgrounds that display nine different moods in audio messages.

If you want to enjoy these features as soon as possible, join the beta program of Google Messages and make sure you have the app updated. It is important to remember that these updates may take some time to reach all users. The new recorder design will be available for SMS and MMS users, while Voice Moods will be limited to RCS conversations.
