WhatsApp AR features

WhatsApp has pushed a new beta update to add AR features and a new editing tool for a better video calling experience. The new update is available for Android users with version 2.24.16.6 through the Google Play Beta Program.

The fresh WhatsApp beta update brings Augmented Reality (AR) features that make video calls more fun and customizable. With new AR features, users can now apply various facial filters and effects during video calls.

For example, there’s a touch-up tool that smooths skin and a low-light mode that helps you look better in dim lighting. You can check more effects and filters and use them while video calling on WhatsApp, only if you have installed the latest beta update.

In addition, the update also introduces a background editing tool, which lets you change or blur your background during group calls. You can use it to hide messy background things or just for fun by choosing from different default backgrounds.

WhatApp is also planning to release this feature available on the Desktop app in the future. The company aims to make it easier to manage backgrounds during professional or detailed calls on a larger screen.

Currently, these new AR features and background tools of WhatsApp are available to some beta testers. WhatsApp plans to expand them to more users in the coming weeks.

Aside from the video calls, WhatsApp is also working on a new feature to reshare status easily. The direct resharing feature will remove the need for users to take screenshots or ask for the post to be sent privately.

Samsung Sound Assistant Reverse Stereo

Samsung has released a new update for the Sound Assistant Good Lock module with version 6.1.00.9. This update introduces an important change for Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6.

The fresh update of the Sound Assitant has removed the Reverse Stereo function for the Galaxy Fold 6 and Galaxy Flip 6. Samsung decided to remove this feature because recent changes to the system’s sound processing made it difficult to keep the function working properly.

The Reverse Stereo function allows users to switch the left and right audio channels. But now, this feature is no longer available for the latest foldable smartphones. The company has officially mentioned that they cannot guarantee stable functionality for the Reverse Stereo feature due to the recent changes in sound processing.

This update may be disappointing for users who use the reverse stereo feature in the sound assistant. However, Samsung aims to improve the stability of the device so that more audio functions work well.

Galaxy Fold 6 and Galaxy Flip 6 users will need to adjust to this change, but they can still enjoy other audio customization options in the sound assistant module. These latest smartphones already have several new and smart features.

Users can download the Samsung Sound Assitant 6.1.00.9 update from the Galaxy Store >> Menu option >> Updates. Also, they can download the update from the third-party app source link mentioned here.

Samsung recently added One UI 6.1.1 support to the Sound Assistant Good Lock module. In addition, it added Galaxy Buds 3 icons to align the interface with Samsung’s latest wearable technology to ensure that users can enjoy a seamless experience when managing sound settings through Sound Assistant.
