WhatsApp introduces pause/resume option for voice recording
WhatsApp keeps on introducing several new features for its in-app voice recorder to provide a better user experience. Recently, the company released a global voice note player feature that allows users to listen to the voice notes even after switching to a different chat.
Now, WhatsApp is rolling out new options for its voice recording that is Pause and Resume for Whatsapp Desktop. It allows users to play and stop the voice recording before sending it.

In the shared screenshot (WABetaInfo), we can clearly see the pause button that lets you pause voice notes. Earlier there was a stop icon instead of the pause button.
Before sending a voice note, you can see three options which are Listen, Delete and Resume. If you have installed the latest beta update but don’t get this option, then you will have to wait long as this feature has rolled out to some beta testers.
At present, the Pause and Resume option is being rolled out only for WhatsApp Desktop Beta 2.2201.2. However, the feature is already available for WhatsApp for iOS and the company will soon make it available to WhatsApp for Android through its beta update.
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.
