Great news! We just started working on this for the AUDIO portion. We are still trying to determine feasibility for the video portion of your request.

    This is EXTREMELY important. In a fully virtualized covid world, and in a world where we have team members spanning extreme time zones, the ability to send a VIDEO message to a channel or 1:1 does a lot for team morale and team connection. Morale and connection boost productivity. Addition of this feature would make this tool more valuable. Please add video ASAP.

    Come on, the future of work is asynchronous. This function is much more important than video calls itself.

    The feature works on the phone version (I use Android) but not on the Windows version, please add it there also, it would be useful for many situations where a text won't do it and you don't want to have a call also

    Hi, my audio messaging is not working anymore... I deleted and redownloaded the App but it's still not working. What can I do to fix it?
    It's keep saying there was an error recording the audio message.

    I believe this would be useful to respond to respond to those using the mobile app using voice messages from the desktop client.

    This really needs to be in the desktop app as well. We have young students on Teams.

    It would be nice if we could add some sort of tags or labels to audio messages, making it possible to reference and quickly find audio messages that might contain important information.

    The UI/UX for audio was not well thought out here. FrontLine workers love sending audio but there are too many issues:
    1) You have to keep holding the "Audio" button down to record
    2) There is no transcription
    3) There is no way to use power automate to "send" the audio-file to a different platform for tracking nor transcription purposes.

    Checkout Asana's iOS mobile app for a beautifully well thought out UI/UX that allows the user to record audio, transcribes, and uploads the file.

    This is already done in the mobile app version but NOT in the desktop version? Why not? This feature would make life soooooooooooooooooo much easier and type soooooooooooooooo much less than usual.

    Enable voice messaging for desktop version as well!
