Longer voice memos & speed options
under review
Alex Marshall
I cannot stand listening to voice memos on 1x so the ability to speed these up would be life giving!
I'd also like to be able to send longer voice memos (more than 1 min!!) and/or be able to control the length of VMs that clients can send, if need be

Longer Voice notes OR Loom integration!
A
Amber Dewar
voice notes NEED to be longer than 1 minute ‼️ From a client perspective, the ability to talk and feel connected to their coach/community is so important to their progress. From a coach perspective, we need to be able to send feedback and respond in a time efficient manner. playing 10+ seperate voice notes that you cant speed up is a MAJOR cog in the machine/productivity. I'm not sure if its possible to get Loom or some video recording software built into the app to deliver feedback, check ins etc so we dont have to outsource communications to software or apps like WhatsApp, Loom, Tellar etc

PLEASE extent the time for voice notes and add a transcript! I record VMs to clients and they back to me and it cuts off after 1min. So many times I'll be recording and then look back and it's cut me off. Super annoying for myself and clients. I work with busy women and for them to be able to voice message me instead of sitting down to respond is a game changer. Please :)

Transcript would be absolutely amazing to go with it.

Voice Notes Need Updating
Monique Yates
No more disappearing voice notes - We need to KEEP them! Clients need to KEEP them! It's part of the coaching service, and how some clients prefer to receive communication and build connection as an online Coach.
The voice notes also need an Ai transcribe if they are disappearing, so there is a record of the communication sent and received.
Extend the time you can record to longer than a minute.

Voice Note Length
Fabian Byrne
One thing I would love to have on the platform is an increase of voice note length. alot of clients like sending voice nots in the direct messaging feature and using long voice notes with in the dms can really help create inclusive methods of information handling for those that are auditory learners instead of visual

Speeding up audios
Alecia Mather
The ability to play an audio message in 1.25x, 1.5x or 2x speed would save a lot of time, especially if a client is sending multiple audios

I send and receive a lot of voice notes on here and it would be awesome to:
- scrub through them to specific points
- listen on 1.5 - 2x speed
- See a transcript of the voice note
Slack has all of these features and it makes it much easier and faster to use. Thank you so much!

Playback Speed Control for Voice Messages
B
Błażej Wesołowski
Hi Everfit team and community!
I'd love to suggest a feature that I think many coaches would find incredibly valuable: variable playback speed for voice messages (0.75x, 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 2x).
Why this matters:
As a coach managing 150+ clients, voice messages are my primary tool for delivering nuanced feedback — exercise cues, form corrections, training explanations. However, there's a real friction point: clients often want to re-listen to instructions multiple times, and coaches sometimes send lengthy explanations that clients need to absorb quickly.
The use case from both sides:
From the client's perspective — being able to speed up a 3-minute coaching explanation to 1.5x saves time and improves compliance. Clients who are busy are more likely to actually listen when they can consume content on their terms.
From the coach's perspective — when reviewing client video submissions or listening back to your own messages, 2x playback is a massive time-saver across a large client base.
Why it's a high-ROI feature:
This is a relatively lightweight UI addition (it's already native behavior in most podcast and audio apps) that delivers outsized quality-of-life improvement. Apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, and every major podcast platform have normalized this — coaches and clients now expect it as a baseline.
Thanks !

Better voice messaging for chat

Being able to send voice-notes longer than one minute, and also being able to scroll through like iMessage voice-note would be incredibly helpful.
Also offering a 2x speed option. Also applying these features to workout comments.
