They will use the new API once windows phone 8.1 is widely available to all devices.

It is possible right??because this is the one feature that will push wp beyond expectations...

Technically, it's access to the file system. The file picker has been around for a while, but it was restricted to photos only.

Now, for your concern, it depends on the developer. So, if you're really interested in this, contact Whatsapp. They'll implement this, considering their track record, if you ask me.

Yes it is. Some peeps here in forums were able to send audio files with some work around.
