    I have one friend I exchange voice notes with a lot (vs text), and we've both taken to recapping the note we're responding to (in our time-shifted conversation) so we can both follow along, and that works well for us.

    We'll also both intersperse some text messages that work as way points for navigating the conversation. For us, it's a great system.

    It doesn't always work out, but I tend to leave voice notes that correspond to paragraphs, that also have tonal unity -- you can respond to them with a single emoji.

    If the tone shifts and more than one reaction emoji is warranted, then I usually break off a new voice note.

    (This is largely unconscious and probably due in part to years of writing & editing that inform the rhythms of my speech.)
