Send a voice note instead of typing it out
A tenant standing in front of a broken boiler should not have to type three paragraphs. Voice notes let anyone in a Seayora conversation hold a button, describe the situation, and send — and they land in the same thread as everything else, attached to the property and the tenancy.
What voice notes give you
- Record and send audio in any conversation, from any device
- Plays reliably on iPhone, Android, and desktop browsers
- Stored with the thread as part of the permanent record
- Delivered in realtime with the same read receipts as text
- Useful for maintenance descriptions, walkthrough notes, and instructions
Why they actually play on an iPhone
Browsers record audio in formats iOS cannot decode, which is why voice notes silently fail on iPhones in a lot of rental apps. Seayora transcodes every voice note on the server the moment it is uploaded, so the recipient gets a format their device can play regardless of what the sender recorded on.
Frequently asked questions
Do voice notes play on an iPhone?
Yes. Every voice note is transcoded server-side into a format iOS can decode, so a note recorded in Chrome on Android plays fine on an iPhone and vice versa.
Are voice notes kept as part of the record?
Yes. They are stored with the conversation thread alongside text and attachments, so the timeline of what was reported and when stays intact.
Can I send a voice note from my phone?
Yes. The platform is fully functional in a phone browser, including recording and playing voice notes.
