    You can now play uploaded audio files right in Heartbeat with our built-in audio player! Check it out by uploading an audio file to a comment, post, or message :)

      Mike Phillips: The standard 10MB file size limit applies here. Depending on the quality of the mp3, this can give you upwards of 10 minutes of recorded time.

    Would love either the opportunity to embed a private podcast or to upload audio directly so it can be played within Heartbeat

      Marissa Loewen: Yes! I was just thinking this the other day. I use Hello Audio for private podcasting and it would make so much sense to be able to embed from there.

    This is my biggest request for the platform -- it'd be a simple but powerful improvement! I run a music community so reducing the amount of clicks and allowing people to easily play uploaded mp3's / wav's from posts / comments / chat interface would improve engagement with that content. Imagine having to click and download just to watch a video that someone shares on social media -- audio deserves the same usability as video. A native audio player can be seen in other community platforms like circle.so and pensil.in. In Pensil you can actually directly record audio for your post/comment which is useful for us. Great platform, and love the ethos, personal touch and community advice! Thx! :)

    This might be a good temp fix to allowing voice messaging too if we could upload voice notes recorded in voice memos

    Super essential!
    Also, dont' forget additional speeds (1.25, 1.5, 1.75 for impatient people, 0.5, 0.75 for learners like my members)

    Yes! I offer a lot of meditation audio and not all of it should be downloadable.
