WhatsApp to add a new feature called message reactions, inspired by Instagram
WhatsApp Message Reactions: Just recently, WhatsApp has started working on a new feature called message reaction, which allows users to express their feelings through a specific message. Currently, users show their reactions by sending a different emoji after the message or response.
Actually, this feature is currently available on Instagram, Twitter, and iMessage, etc. but in the future, WhatsApp will bring this feature on its own app. Recently, a WhatsApp notification was identified with a message related to message replies.
According to the information, if the user gets a message in the old version, a WhatsApp notification will flash on the screen with a message prompting users to update the app to the latest version. Whereas, users can’t see the message but be careful to get it.
While WhatsApp has not announced this feature yet but the screenshot clearly highlights its arrival. However, there are still a lot of hidden things like what emojis WhatsApp will use to reply to messages, and so on.
Additionally, it looks like this feature will first come to Android devices after this iOS and desktop web. It’s still under construction, so we have to wait for some news to find out more.
We do not know when, if possible, this feature will be released to end-users. If WhatsApp decides to use the messaging reaction feature, it will come first in WhatsApp beta. But considering how early this feature is, we do not expect it to reach WhatsApp anytime soon.
Messaging responds to a growing list of WhatsApp features that are still being developed and have not been released to the public yet. These include a new instant payment shortcut, local backup encryption, new disappearing message feature options, and multi-device support for iPad and Android tablets.

WhatsApp has introduced a new feature called Chat Filters to enhance the user experience. This feature simplifies the process of navigating through messages, making it quick and effortless. With the increasing volume of messages on WhatsApp, the ability to quickly access them is important.
The Chat Filters feature of WhatsApp helps users organize their chats better and focus on the most pressing conversations. The rollout of these filters has begun and will be available to all users in the upcoming weeks.
By tapping on these filters at the top of the chat list, users can sort their messages with ease. It offers three convenient options:
All: This filter shows every message or we can say a default view of all
Unread: This filter highlights conversations that require attention, displaying both marked unread and new messages.
Groups: It contains all group conversations, including Community subgroups, in one place. This filter is much-anticipated addition for organizing all group chats.
With the introduction of the Chat Filters feature, WhatsApp aims to improve functionality and ensure users can focus on their most important messages.

WhatsApp is enhancing user engagement with a new feature that prompts users to invite their contacts to join the messaging platform. This feature appears as a banner at the top of the chat list and is part of a targeted campaign to increase the app’s user base.
It is currently available to a select group of users who have installed the latest WhatsApp updates on iOS and Android devices. The banner aims to remind users to encourage their friends and family to use WhatsApp.
This approach is especially useful in countries where WhatsApp users are less, as it serves as a visible and convenient prompt for users to invite more people to the platform. By highlighting the advantages of new features and a unified chat experience, WhatsApp is looking to attract more users and maintain its position as a leading messaging service.
The feature is expected to be rolled out more widely in the coming weeks. This new move indicates that WhatsApp wants to keep users informed and connected, using the visibility of in-app notifications.

WhatsApp is rolling out a new beta update for Android devices, which brings a redesigned drawing tool. Users can identify the latest beta update through version 2.24.9.6, available on Google Play Store
The fresh beta update shows a new design that relocates the brush and color selection tools to the bottom of the screen. This change is particularly beneficial for larger screens, where reaching the top of the screen can be inconvenient.
Additionally, WhatsApp plans to expand color choices with a palette of 24 default colors, making it easier for users to choose and apply colors quickly. By placing the drawing tool in an easy-to-access place, WhatsApp will allow users to focus less on navigating the interface and more on their creativity.
