At the end of this short article you will be able to send a WhatsApp voice message that makes you appear to be somewhere else.
How many times have you had to lie to someone by message – especially to your wife/husband – claiming to be somewhere else?
“I’m on the way, I’m driving” while you are still at home.
“I have a business dinner, I’ll text you later” while you are lounging on the couch.
“I’m in the office, I’ll be late!” while you’re with you affair.
Today, I will explain to you how to make it more credible by sending a WhatsApp voice message with a fake background sound effect. The message will appear so real that even you will believe yourself to be in another place when you listen it.
Moreover, I will also explain to you how to record a message and send it later.
“A lie for a good worth a thousand truths.”
How to add fake background noise to a voice message
With this simple trick you will be able to make others believe you are in an airport, restaurant, stadium, stuck in traffic, in the rain, and so on. You may even be in a savannah!

How to postpone the sending of a voice message
It may be useful to record a message in advance and send it later on. If you tell your wife you’re going to the office and then you get to a sports ground for example, it would be difficult to record a message with a different background from there.
- Open WhatsApp
- Open the chat with the contact you want to send the voice message to
- From the Control Center (swipe up from the bottom of the screen) turn airplane mode on
- Go back to WhatsApp chat and click on the microphone icon to record the message. You will then see the voice message on the chat screen with a red exclamation mark as it wasn’t sent for the lack of internet connection. You can now disable airplane mode
- When you want to send the message, tap on the exclamation mark and select Try Again. You will see the time when you recorded it once it is sent, but the recipient will only see the delivery time

The best way to send voice messages with a fake background sound is to choose one of the many “background sound” available on YouTube and play it. While it is playing, record your voice on top of it.
The best solution would be to have two devices at your fingertips.
If you don’t have two mobile phones or a computer from which to play the audio, I suggest you send a fake WhatsApp message. In this article I will show you how to do it in a few simple steps.
