"Gen Z Prefers Voice Notes Over Texting"

Voice notes, also known as voice texts or audio messages, have become a popular communication form, especially among younger generations. The feature, available in messaging apps like iMessage and WhatsApp, allows for easier, low-pressure communication and the ability to convey tone. A recent survey found that 62% of Americans have sent a voice message, and 43% of 18- to 29-year-olds use the feature at least weekly. Asynchronous forms of communication like voice notes can help strengthen social bonds, but synchronous calls are still necessary for seamless, responsive conversations.
