Why can I receive voice messages in text conversations from friends who don’t have an iPhone, but I can’t send my own to them in the same chat? Why would I have to download a separate app, it seems insane to me.
Im not confused how to send them either, I do that all the time when the other person also has an IPhone.
iPhone 5c, iOS 9
