WhatsApp is finally getting the much-awaited features. The company announced on Wednesday that the Facebook-owned messaging app will eventually see animated stickers for KaiOS, QR codes, dark mode for web and desktop, video call improvements and status features missing. Features for both Android and iOS apps will roll out in the coming weeks.
A few days before its release, Wabetainfo-WhatsApp Feature Tracker informed users that the company was testing the QR Code feature and working on the animated sticker feature. Another much-awaited feature is multi-device support, which seems to make the messaging app work longer. While we have no idea when it will be made available, we now have QR codes, better video calls, and many more interesting features. So let us take a look at the functions of the newly released features.
QR Code – Gone are the days when you will need a person’s mobile number to add to your WhatsApp because now with the QR Code feature you just need to scan and save your number. This makes the whole game very easy and time-saving, as you can simply scan someone’s QR code and add it to your contacts. Now you do not have to write the number.
Animated Stickers – WhatsApp has always launched features that are productive and that enhance the user experience. But the animated sticker feature makes your chatting experience fun. Users will find animated sticker packs to choose from and they can view, save, send, send, and forward animated stickers once they are downloaded. But there is a slight lag that was reported by Wabetainfo and which can really turn you off, with animated stickers playing only once and lacking a loop system. You can not repeat it again.
Dark Mode for the Web – WhatsApp released Dark Mode for Android and iOS long ago, but the much-awaited feature has finally come to the web version of the messaging app. Go ahead and enjoy your big screen in a dark mode!
Advanced Group Video Call – WhatsApp had increased the group video call limit from four to eight and now has added some special features to it. Now you can focus on any of your contacts and hold a participant’s video to press it on full screen. A video icon has also been added to a group chat of 8 people or less, so now you can tap on the video icon to initiate a group call.
Status disappearance for KaiOS– WhatsApp has rolled out the status of disappearance for KaiOS. This feature was already available for Android and iOS features.
