- falcolas 8y agoVoice reports have a few major advantages: They can be made while your hands are otherwise occupied (driving, flying, etc.) They don't require web access (can be done while in the middle of a forest, or 10,000 feet above the ground) They lessen the chance of being DDOSed by a bored teenager Doing them while within range of the internet may be less efficient, but they're also not limited by the internet.
