New Feature: Play uploaded audio files inline

By

March 19, 2024

Hey there Workflowy folks, you can now play your audio files alongside your other notes and files. Previously when you uploaded an audio file you would need to first download it to play it, now you can just drop it anywhere in your account and start playing it back once it’s finished uploading.

This addition makes it easy to add audio files of lectures, voice notes, podcasts, etc. and take notes without having to use another application for audio playback or deal with audio files stored in other applications like google drive or dropbox.

We currently support multiple popular audio formats like .mp3, .wav, .ogg, .m4a, .aac, and of course .flac.

To try it out ✨

  1. Drag and drop an audio file into your Workflowy
  2. Wait for the file to finish uploading
  3. Hit play on the audio player

Let us know what you think in the comments below.
Until the next one!

This update feels like music to my ears – literally. Being able to play audio inside Workflowy is a game-changer, especially for anyone juggling notes and trending clips. I instantly thought about organizing my favorite soundboard moments and meme soundboard unblocked files.

That’s an awesome update for Workflowy users! Being able to play audio files directly feels like using a built-in soundboard super convenient for managing sound buttons, notes, or even creating a mini meme soundboard. For anyone exploring trending sounds or a sound board free experience, check out SoundBoardW.com to download and customize your favorite soundbutton clips!

It would be great if you could bookmark sections of the embedded audio file with a sublink

You guys are frickin’ amazing! You consistently come up with fantastic improvements, and somehow still manage to keep the essence of Workflowy – its clean simplicity. I don’t know how you do it, but I sure do appreciate it!!!

Please let us add all type of files while offline, and access them while offline… keep a copy of all files available in the account in the workflowy folder, that can be easily be backed-up… I used to do that with evernote, bear… Thanks!
