Well, the audio file is far bigger in volume, so sending it take much more bandwidth, takes time (because it takes much longer time to send), counts against your data allowance and uses your battery life. If your iPhone is sending the message via the cellular network, the size of the audio file may be a real concern. So you should take into consideration off of these factors before you take the decision. However, sending the audio file can be useful. For example, it is very important that the recipient hear your voice or when the sender has problems with diction (heavy accent, for instance), and Apple Watch cannot transcribe the text correctly.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><span id=\"Links\"><span><strong>Links<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>We help you save money for your new electronic device.
