Instagram has launched a voice messaging feature to its direct messages. Users can now send audio messages up to one-minute long in their private and group chats using the app, thanks to a new update rolling out on both iOS and Android.

If you hold down the microphone button, your message will send as soon as you let go of the button. If you want to start again, tap your finger over to the trash bin. The feature works much like the version available on Facebook.
