WhatsApp is planning some new features for Android users to make messaging (and even more) a little better. For this, the Meta-owned messaging platform has been found testing three new features as part of various beta versions. Check them out below.
WhatsApp Tricks EVERYONE Should Use!
According to a recent WABetaInfo report, WhatsApp for Android beta version 2.23.16.6 has brought a new security tool feature. This will present a new screen that mentions the security features of WhatsApp, mainly intended for new users.
A screenshot included in the report shows how they can handle messages from unknown numbers. They can either block or report the number to maintain their privacy. This will also highlight how you can turn off read receipts so others can't see if you've read their messages or not. There will also be a link where you can learn more about being safe on the platform.
WhatsApp is also testing a redesigned search bar as part of the 2.23.16.5 update. This will align with the Material You 3 design and display options like Unread, Photos, Videos, GIFs and more in bubbles, requiring a clean and streamlined look. This is available to some beta testers but there is no word on when it will reach everyone. Check it out below.
