At present, WhatsApp users can only record a voice message in one go and send it, thus, they cannot listen to the recorded message before sending it. Only selected WhatsApp accounts can use the voice recordings feature. Even if the user is a beta tester, he/she may not be able to utilise the feature yet as only selected beta testers have received it. Earlier, WhatsApp has added three new features to the web version of the platform. The company had announced that users could now edit photos on the web version, too, and preview links as well.

WhatsApp has also improved how people can see previews of links. -PTC News
