One little quirk with audio text messages

2014-11-24 Thread Neal Ewers
Perhaps others do not find this, but here is what I just discovered. If I hold down the record button to record a text message and then release the button, I then have a send button. That way, I can hear the audio before I send it. However, if I raise the phone to my ear and hear the tone, I be

Question about sending an audio text message

Hi all. When I go to messages and double tap and hold the audio record button, it says it is a video recording when I release it. What am I doing wrong. The quality is not very good either, which is OK, but I wondered if it was really recording video and thus caused the audio to be less good. N
