According to rumors, the Meta-owned instant messaging company WhatsApp will likely add more message response features in the next few days. According to the most recent WABetaInfo leak, WhatsApp is presently working on new emoji reactions for the app.
While WhatsApp Beta for Android now supports sending message replies with all emojis, the capability has yet to be added to WhatsApp Beta for iOS. While the feature is still in the works, it is expected to be available shortly for both the Android and iOS platforms. However, the story makes no mention of the feature's availability for WhatsApp desktop users.
According to the article, users will be able to browse and pick from a recent responses area, similar to Instagram. "WhatsApp has added a draggable part where you can simply choose and search for any emoji you wish to use for replying to the message!" it says. In addition, the magazine states that "in the same part, we can also locate a row dedicated to our recently chosen replies."
WhatsApp has unveiled a feature that allows users to instantly respond to a message using emojis. The functionality included six emojis at the time of introduction, including thumbs up, heart, laughing with tears, astonished face, sorrowful with tears, and linked hands. The platform is currently aiming to expand the number of emoji replies available. Emoji replies are also accessible on Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and other messaging systems such as Telegram.
On June 16, 2022, WhatsApp revealed through its official Twitter handle that it is introducing a new privacy setting option. Until today, users had just three privacy settings for their profile photo, last seen, and data section: Nobody, My Contacts, and Everyone.
WhatsApp users may now utilize the My Contacts Except privacy feature to conceal their profile image or last seen status from select individuals on the network. My Contacts Except has been accessible on WhatsApp for quite some time, but just for posting a Status.
