The query "how to save a voice message from WhatsApp" is one of the most popular in search engines. The fact is that the exchange of voice messages and audio files is one of the popular functions of the WhatsApp messenger.
Such files are very popular. There is such a category of users who prefer to “say” a message in a “live” voice, rather than write. This is very convenient and more natural than sending an emotionless text. nine0003
There are also those who collect audio content on their phones.
For example, tracks of favorite songs, good music and all the same voice messages.
Please note! This article will discuss how to download audio content to your phone and PC. For example, received voice messages and audio files.
The algorithm for the mobile version of Vatsap will be considered using the Android operating system of the Xiaomi Redmi 7 phone as an example.
Other models of the manufacturer, as well as other manufacturers, may have differences in the interface, but the algorithm is identical. nine0003
I would like to note that in the mobile version, saving files of this type is possible in several ways. Moreover, the algorithm is not much different from saving other types of content: photos, pictures, video content.
When the WhatsApp mobile application is installed on the user's smartphone, all program settings are set to default.
In the default settings of the auto-download function of received content and, in particular, audio messages, the option is set to “enabled” by default. nine0003
Moreover, such files are saved in a specific phone storage folder. They get there automatically after listening to an audio message or audio file. True, finding this content in the repository is not very convenient. Therefore, many users prefer to move their other folder.
Important! For the convenience of performing the actions described in the algorithm, the file manager built into Xiaomi Redmi 7 from the manufacturer will be used. It is called "Explorer" in the interface. nine0003
You can also download any other Android file manager, such as Google Files, to your mobile device. It can be downloaded from the Google Play Market.
Before we talk about how to save audio from WhatsApp, it is important to check that the auto-download feature on your phone is not disabled.
To do this, go to the application settings (1). Next, open the “Data and storage” section (2), inside which for the mobile network, Wi-Fi, and if the user is roaming (3), check that the “Audio” file type (4) is ticked. nine0003
If not, check and click OK (5) to save the setting.
After checking or enabling the necessary options, you must exit the WhatsApp settings.
To save the received audio file on your mobile device, you need to open a chat with the file or voice message. Next, you need to wait until it downloads to your phone, then you need to minimize the messenger and open Explorer.
In Explorer you need to find the "WhatsApp" folder (1), and in it - "Media" (2). There are many subfolders inside this folder. Audio files are stored in the "WhatsApp Audio" folder (3), and voice messages are stored in the "WhatsApp Voice Notes" folder (4). nine0003
In these folders, you can find absolutely all the files that the user has ever received on a mobile device.
Moreover, audio files can be saved in the formats in which they are recorded by default. There is a specific format for voice messages, these are files with the opus extension. Voice messages are grouped in folders collected for a certain day.
Please note! For those users who are interested in files with the opus extension. This format is quite popular, although not well known. nine0003
Moreover, files of this type are usually "readable" by all popular music players for Android devices. For example, the most demanded AIMP player.
So, now, in fact, we have come to the answer to the question of interest "how to save a voice message from WhatsApp." Or rather, move / copy the resulting file from the Watsap system folder to the user's personal folder.
To do this, mark the voice file (1) and use the menu commands located at the bottom of the window: “Move” (2) or “More” (3) => “Copy” (4). nine0003
After that, a window will open in which you need to specify where you want to move / copy the file (5), and, having selected a folder for the file (6), use the Paste command (7).
After the file has been successfully copied/moved, you can rename it.
The audio file from the WhatsApp Audio folder is copied/moved in the same way.
This method is much easier than the previous one, moreover, it is successfully used by most users. The Share feature is built into the Android operating system. It is used for various purposes, as well as for sending various files received on the network. And also in the mobile device explorer. nine0003
To do this, you need to open the WhatsApp messenger. Then find the chat where the desired audio file or voice message is present. Mark the voice message or audio file (1) that you want to save on your phone. After that, a menu will appear at the top of the window.
Click on the Share icon (2). This action will cause a panel to appear at the bottom with a set of applications where you can share the file. In particular, the user should be interested in the "Copy to . .." folder tab (3), clicking on which will open Explorer. nine0003
Inside the file manager, you must select "Internal shared storage" (4), and inside - the desired folder where the user plans to save the file (5). After selecting the target folder, you need to click on the "Insert" icon (6).
After that, the file will be saved, now it will be very easy to find it.
As can be seen from the algorithm, everything is quite simple. Therefore, the user no longer sees the difficulty in the question of how to save audio from WhatsApp. He can do this using his favorite function - "Share". nine0003
Important! Both algorithms in the Android OS described above are also valid for saving other types of files.
The WhatsApp desktop client is generally considered to be a simplified version of the mobile app. And it is only capable of playing everything that happens on the user's main device.
In terms of answering the question “how to save a voice message from WhatsApp”, the same can be said. On the desktop, as well as in the web version of the application, this action looks much more prosaic than in the mobile application. nine0003
In addition, unfortunately, there is no favorite "Share" function, which is so accustomed to the owners of mobile devices with Android.
In order to save an audio file or a voice message to a PC, the user needs to open the desired chat. Then move the mouse over the file you want to save and then click on the arrow (1) to the right of the file. In this case, a menu will appear on the screen, in which you need to select the line "Download" (2).
This action will open Windows Explorer. The user needs to select a folder (1), come up with a new name for the file and enter it in the line (2), then click on the "Save" button (3):
This is enough to save the file on the PC. You can find the saved file in the very folder that the user selected at the save stage.
