It looks like there will be two new features for WhatsApp soon. This should especially satisfy people who exchange photos frequently.
The basics in brief
- Meta has released a new beta version of WhatsApp.
- This makes it possible to send the images to another recipient in the chat.
- Moreover, it is now possible to restrict who sees their WhatsApp status.
Parent company Meta has released a new beta version of WhatsApp for Android on Google Play.
The version has not yet been released. But it does provide a glimpse into the upcoming features of the messaging service. According to “wabetainfo”, this update introduces two major changes.
On the one hand, there is a new view or a new editor for photo comments. Once you select a photo within a chat, it can be sent to different contacts, just like a camera tab.
Restrict Status Images on WhatsApp
Moreover, it will soon be possible to restrict who sees their WhatsApp status. Without special configuration, it is shared with all contacts. However, people can be left out now. It is also visible to make the status visible to individuals only.
This is similar to Instagram. There it is possible, for example, to share stories only with pre-selected “close friends”.
