Updated Features Of WhatsApp

Social media is not a media. This is the key to listen, engage, and build relationships. Social networks aren’t about Web sites. They’re about experiences. To improve the user experience and convenience, WhatsApp on Friday rolled out a new update for beta users on Android. The new update for WhatsApp beta brings features like multi-share preview, picture-in-picture mode, Consecutive Voice Messages, dark mode and QR codes.  You can try them out via WhatsApp Beta which allows early access to the latest features in testing.

The new features on WhatsApp beta are:

QR Codes:

Instead of sharing your WhatsApp number digit-by-digit, you will soon be able to share your contact details via a QR code. For the safety of users, they can also revoke the QR code which then stops it from letting other future users scan the code to get contact information.

QR codes aren’t new to WhatsApp though. WhatsApp requires users to scan one when logging into WhatsApp via their desktops.

Dark Mode:

Pretty straightforward—a mode that turns everything that’s bright and lively to a darker theme for night time use, so it’s less harsh on your eyes.

Multi-share preview:

Through this feature WhatsApp will show a preview before sending files to multiple contacts. It will work only on sharing files from another app. Just before the files are sent, WhatsApp will show a preview and users can choose to go forward or cancel it. This feature isn’t available for users on beta yet.

Consecutive Voice Messages:

The new feature allows automatic queuing of voice messages. All you will have to do is to press on the audio play symbol and WhatsApp will play all the current as well as consecutive voice messages in a row for you. This feature was spotted on WhatsApp beta for iOS (v 2.18.100) .

Picture-in-picture:

When you click on a YouTube link sent by someone on WhatsApp, the system instantly triggers the YouTube app to open. With this feature, you can watch the YouTube video in a box hovering over the chat window, saving you multiple taps on the recent button.
