WhatsApp surprises again by developing new features to improve the user experience. Check out what's coming soon to your favorite messaging app, with short videos, improved privacy and more!
WhatsApp takes inspiration from stories with short videos
According to WaBetaInfo, WhatsApp is currently working on a new short video message feature to give its users a new way to communicate with their friends and family. iPhone users will soon be able to send 60-second ephemeral videos to their contacts, enhancing the fun and interactive aspect of conversations. This feature, called “video messages”, is currently in development and will be available in a future update of the application for iOS.
In addition, WhatsApp also plans to add a self-destruct option for audio messages, allowing users to share voice recordings that can only be listened to once before disappearing. This feature will provide additional security for sensitive conversations and ensure greater privacy.
Pinning and interface redesign: new features for better chat organization
WhatsApp is also preparing a major update to its user interface, including a redesigned attachment menu for Android users. This change will make sending documents, images and other files much smoother and more intuitive, making your exchanges even more enjoyable.
As part of this improved organization, users will soon be able to pin specific messages within a conversation. This much-anticipated feature will highlight important information and make it easy to find at a glance.
New emojis and more: WhatsApp goes all out
Finally, WhatsApp wouldn't be complete without a touch of fun! The next update will also include new emojis to spice up your chats and allow you to express your emotions even more accurately.
Video messages will bring a new dimension to your conversations by allowing you to share visual content and express your emotions in a richer way than with simple voice or text messages. Whether it's showing how to use a new product or explaining something visually, video messages will play a more complete role in communication.
Since privacy is a priority for WhatsApp, video messages will also be end-to-end encrypted. No one, including the app itself, will be able to access their content. However, WaBetaInfo says that it will not be possible to record or forward video messages in other conversations to enhance privacy. Screenshots, on the other hand, will remain allowed.
In conclusion, WhatsApp continues to innovate and develop new features to offer its users the best possible messaging experience. Stay tuned for these and other new features, as WhatsApp doesn't seem to be stopping here! Get ready to enrich your conversations and enjoy a smoother, more secure and fun messaging experience with these much-anticipated updates.
