WhatsApp, a messaging platform under Meta, is gearing up to enhance user experiences with several new features in the pipeline. These features, reported by WABetaInfo, are set to revolutionize how users interact and manage their conversations on the app.
One of the upcoming features is the ability for users to react to media content directly from the media viewer screen. This streamlined process allows users to express their thoughts without navigating away from the media they are viewing, making interactions more seamless.
WhatsApp is also working on a feature that allows users to mark community group chats as hidden. This feature will be accessible through a dedicated icon next to the group name, providing users with more control over their chat visibility and organization.
Another feature in the works is the ability to manage chat storage filters. This feature enables users to filter their chat list within the app, simplifying the process of managing device storage. It allows users to prioritize and organize their chats more efficiently.
WhatsApp is introducing an account restriction feature that temporarily limits user accounts from sending messages. This feature serves as a penalty for specific violations, preventing restricted accounts from initiating new chats for a designated period.
These upcoming features showcase WhatsApp’s commitment to enhancing user convenience, privacy, and overall chat experience. While some features are already available to beta testers, others are still under development and are expected to roll out to a broader user base in the near future.
