There are eight different types of volleys that you can send: video, audio, text, image, screen recording, video uploads, GIFS, and files.
Video is the hero of Volley and is the most popular volley type. To send a video volley, simply tap the camera button at the bottom of the timeline, and it will launch the recording view (desktop users can also use the shortcut "V").
Tap the record button to start your recording.
When you're done recording, simply hit the stop button.
If you have "Review before sending" turned on, you will be able to watch, cancel, re-record, schedule (pro), or send your volley.
If you have "Review before sending" turned off, the volley will be automatically added to the timeline once you stop your recording.
If you want to start your volley over, simply hit the cancel button and re-record what you want to say.
On your mobile device, there is also the ability to switch the camera around back and forth between the front and rear cameras while recording.
Note: There is no countdown timer before you record so you can keep the conversation moving, just like you would in a real-life conversation.
To send an audio volley, tap the microphone icon at the bottom of the timeline, and it will launch the recording view (desktop users can also use the shortcut "A").
When you're done recording, simply hit the stop button.

If you want to start your volley over, simply hit the cancel button and re-record what you want to say.
