To provide ease to persons with disabilities as well as all users, the social media giant Facebook is testing a new feature called "Add Voice Clip" that appears in its status update composer menu that allows users to record a short audio snippet to use as a status update.
Tech Crunch said: "More intimate than text but easier to record than video, Facebook hopes voice could get people sharing more on its aging social network. And internationally, where users may have to deal with non-native language keyboards, voice lets them speak their mind without a typing barrier."
Facebook official said: “Voice Clips gives people a new medium through which to express themselves."
However, it is not yet known if the feature would be rolled out globally.
