New features launched on WeChat!, Just now, the voice | WeChat | New features
On the 19th, according to WeChat Pay, WeChat launched a new feature called "quiet mode".
When updating to the latest version on iOS WeChat, you can activate it through "WeChat" - "Me" - "Settings" - "Care Mode" - "Quiet Mode". Afterwards, WeChat will no longer emit sound in all scenarios such as message notifications, audio and video calls, and video account content playback.
WeChat claims that this feature is specifically developed for those who cannot hear sound. Ordinary people may think that sound is so easily obtainable, but they overlook that deaf people do not possess such physical abilities, and they also use mobile phones and WeChat. In China, there are 27.8 million deaf people.
WeChat reported that it conducted in-depth research on over 100 deaf people in various regions, and their main feeling was that they were afraid of the sound being released and afraid of others hearing the sound they made when using their phones. Deaf people often forget that their phone's sound is turned on; They also had no way of knowing how loud the volume column, which was mistakenly adjusted to the highest level, was making.

Now, "quiet mode" can create a better environment for deaf people to play with their phones freely. In "quiet mode", everything is silent, but if you need to temporarily turn on the sound, you can click on the "+" volume on your phone: WeChat will start playing the sound until you leave or adjust the volume to the lowest level.
