WhatsApp Novi integration payment is now officially available in pilot program in US
Earlier, WhatsApp has been working on Novi Wallet Integration for payments. And now, WhatsApp has officially launched a pilot program in the US, giving some users access to Novi integration.
In a recent tweet, Novi head Stephen Cazarial announced that a limited number of WhatsApp users in the US will be able to send and receive money using Novi from today (via-XDA). For those unfamiliar, Novi is a digital wallet from WhatsApp’s parent company that uses digital currencies to facilitate international money transfers.
This service is currently available in the US and Guatemala to send and receive money using the Pax Dollar (USDP), a fixed cryptocurrency supported by the US Dollar. However, WhatsApp integration is not currently available in Guatemala.
Kasriel explained that WhatsApp users who have access to Novi Integration during the pilot run can send and receive money directly from the chat screen at no charge. All payments made through Novi are directly reflected in the chats of individuals.
If you are one who got access during the pilot run, you can start the payment by following these steps:
- Open a chat with the contact you want to send money to.
- Tap on the attachment icon.
- Select the “Payment” option in the pop-up menu.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to log in to your Novi account or create a new account.
- Send/receive money on the following screen.

WhatsApp Beta 2.24.10.13 beta update is rolling out for Android users, which enhances user privacy with a hidden community group chats feature. This feature is currently under development and will be available in future updates.
The new feature of WhatsApp will let users make certain groups invisible within their community chat lists to enhance their control over privacy within the app.
Each hidden group will be easily identified as it will have a special icon next to its name, making it clear to community members that the group is not visible to everyone.
This new feature aims to provide users with more privacy options. It allows hidden participation in group chats, without displaying activity to the entire community. The icon is a simple indicator for users to manage their group chats more effectively.
The Hidden Community Group Chats feature of WhatsApp is mainly useful for community moderators, who will have better tools to manage group privacy and organization. By allowing groups to be hidden, sensitive discussions can be kept confidential.

WhatsApp has introduced a new interface for viewing status updates with the latest update. The fresh beta update is available for Android users with 2.24.10.10 via the Google Play Beta Program. The update brings a redesigned status tray that simplifies how users interact with statuses on WhatsApp.
The revamped design allows users to see a preview of statuses directly in the updates tray. This feature was highly requested after an earlier update changed the layout to a less user-friendly design.
Previously, WhatsApp replaced thumbnail previews with just profile pictures, which users found inefficient for navigating through statuses. Responding to user feedback, WhatsApp has now made it easier to view statuses at a glance without needing to open each one.
The redesigned interface of status updates tray is currently available to a limited number of WhatsApp beta testers and will be rolled out to more users in the upcoming weeks.

WhatsApp for Android has pushed a new update with version 2.24.10.8, introducing a chat filtering feature for better storage management. This feature is currently in beta testing and available to some beta testers.
The Chat filtering feature of WhatsApp allows users to sort their chats and channels to make it easier to identify and manage storage with large files and vast chat history. With this feature, users can quickly find and delete unnecessary data, freeing up space on their devices by separating conversations.
Previously, WhatsApp had released basic chat filters such as “All”, “Unread”, and “Groups” to help users navigate their chat lists. The new update builds on this functionality to offer better organization of messages and media files.
This new feature is mainly beneficial for distinguishing between business accounts and channels that may have similar names or icons.
WhatsApp’s Chat filtering feature is expected to be made available to more beta testers soon and may be released to all users in a future update.
