>They just keep using annoying audio messages.

Is this a regional/socioeconomic thing? I very rarely see people record and/or listen to voice recordings in public, and my friends certainly don't do it.

It seems to be younger people where I am. What's funny is they don't hold the phone to their ear like I would, they hold the phone with the screen facing them right in front of their faces. I assume that's because their generation don't really do phone calls anymore.

I've never used voice messages like the ones being talked about in this thread so I don't know if there's a particular reason they hold the phone that way

On the rare occasion I record an audio message, I hold it in front of my face. To me it feels like talking on a speaker phone in my brain and I hold my phone accordingly.
