I. Functional Implementation
1. Voice message recording and sending
Microphone permission: Ensure that the application requests and obtains the user's microphone permission.
Recording interface: Design an intuitive recording button, long press to start recording, release to send, or provide the option to preview after recording is completed.
Voice compression: Use efficient audio coding formats (such as AMR, AAC) to compress voice files, reduce file size, and speed up sending.
2. Voice message reception and playback
Message notification: Provide instant notification when a new voice message is received, and highlight it in the chat interface.
Playback control: Provide functions such as play, pause, progress bar, volume control, etc., allowing users to adjust the playback speed.
Autoplay: Add an autoplay option in the settings to facilitate continuous listening to multiple voice messages.
3. Message status indication
Sent: Display a single check mark or other symbol to indicate that the message has been successfully sent to the server.
Delivered: Display a double check mark to indicate that the message has been delivered to the other party's device.
Read: After the other party listens, the status is updated to read, which can be indicated by different colors or symbols.
4. Custom settings
Notification sound: Provide multiple prompt tones for users to choose from, or allow users to use custom ringtones.
Playback speed: Provide multiple speed options such as 0.5x, 1x, 1.5x, and 2x in the playback interface.
5. Voice message transcription
Voice recognition: Integrate voice recognition API to transcribe voice messages into text, making it convenient to view the content when it is inconvenient to listen to the voice.
Accuracy: Optimize the transcription algorithm, improve the recognition accuracy, and support multiple languages and dialects.
II. Technical implementation
1. WeChat open platform integration
API usage: Use the open API provided by WeChat to achieve association with WeChat accounts and send and receive messages.
Authorized login: Use WeChat OAuth2.0 protocol to achieve secure user login and identity authentication.
2. Server architecture
High-performance server: Select a server that supports high concurrency to ensure that messages are sent and received within 1 second.
CDN acceleration: Use content distribution network to reduce network latency and increase transmission speed.
Real-time communication protocol: Use WebSocket or Socket.io to achieve real-time data transmission.
3. Data security and privacy
Encrypted transmission: Use HTTPS and SSL/TLS protocols to ensure the security of data during transmission.
Data storage: Encrypt and store voice messages to protect user privacy.
Permission management: Strictly control user permissions to prevent unauthorized access and data leakage.
III. User interface design
1. Comply with WeChat aesthetics
Color and font: Use the same color scheme and font style as WeChat.
Layout design: Keep the interface simple, follow the interactive logic of WeChat, and reduce the user's learning cost.
2. Interactive elements
Button design: The recording and playback buttons should be obvious and easy to use, and use intuitive icons.
Animation effects: Add appropriate animations during sending, receiving and playing to enhance the user experience.
3. Adaptability
Multi-screen adaptation: Ensure good performance on devices of different sizes and resolutions
