Voice Notes & Media

Voice notes, video and files — handled like a pro

Play voice notes at 2×, keep listening while you scroll, pop videos into a floating player and send any file type — every piece of media saved encrypted on your computer.

Voice notes that keep up

Waveform player with seek and 1×, 1.5× and 2× speed. Scroll away and a mini player follows you with a jump-back button.

Video without leaving the chat

Play inline, expand to a full view, or pop out into picture-in-picture while you type your reply.

Every file type

Images, PDFs, spreadsheets, contacts and locations — previewed in place and sent in their native WhatsApp or Messenger format.

Listen while you work

Customers love voice notes; agents don’t love replaying them. ThreadWave keeps the player with you as you scroll the thread, so you can read the order history while you listen.

  • Floating mini player with progress
  • “Jump to message” scrolls back and highlights the note
  • Record and send your own voice notes from the desktop

Media that stays yours

Meta only keeps inbound media for a short time. ThreadWave downloads it once, checks its integrity and stores it encrypted on your machine — so photos, videos and voice notes are still there next year.

  • Integrity check on every download
  • Encrypted at rest with keys in your OS keychain
  • Retention rules for old media

Frequently asked questions

Which formats can I send?

Anything WhatsApp and Messenger accept: images, video, audio and voice notes, documents (PDF, Office files and more), stickers, contacts and locations. ThreadWave converts audio to the right format for you.

What happens to media when I’m offline?

New messages wait briefly in the relay and download as soon as you come back online. Media is fetched directly from Meta and saved encrypted on your computer.
