WhatsApp has introduced seven new features that enhance the app’s functionality. These updates include improved privacy options, advanced messaging tools, and better media sharing capabilities. The features aim to make user interactions more secure and convenient, offering a smoother chat experience. Stay updated with these key changes that could transform how you use WhatsApp daily.
Meta’s WhatsApp recently earned Google’s Best Multi-Device App Award for 2024, reaffirming its position as a crucial app used globally for over a decade. Despite being free and ad-free, WhatsApp continues to evolve, adding new features that improve communication and usability.
Whether you’re new to WhatsApp or haven't explored all its features, here are seven exciting updates that enhance how you stay connected with friends, family, and colleagues.
Access Advanced Meta AI Models Directly on WhatsApp
WhatsApp now integrates Meta’s advanced AI directly within the app. This eliminates the need for additional apps or paid subscriptions. The AI is free and requires no sign-up process. You can explore complex topics, generate images, ask questions, or even hear jokes. In some countries, WhatsApp also offers a voice model for Meta AI, which is expected to be available in India soon. This feature works on all smartphones, including entry-level devices compatible with the latest WhatsApp version.
Make Video Calls More Fun with Filters
WhatsApp’s video calls now feature background effects and filters to make them more enjoyable. These customization options, ideal for younger users like Gen Z and Gen Alpha, add a fun element to video calls.
Disappearing Voice Messages
WhatsApp introduces self-erasing voice messages, akin to the letters Harry Potter received from Hogwarts. These voice notes disappear after being heard once, allowing you to send private messages securely. Disappearing photos are also supported, ideal for sharing temporary moments.
Automatically Save Unfinished Messages as Drafts
WhatsApp now saves your unfinished messages automatically as drafts, ensuring you can resume where you left off. A draft indicator will alert you to incomplete messages when you open the app, provided you’re using the latest version.
Create Separate Chat Lists for Better Organization
WhatsApp now allows you to create chat lists for work, friends, family, or any other category. This feature helps you manage conversations efficiently, ensuring that you don't miss any urgent work messages while catching up with friends.
WhatsApp-Only Phone Number
WhatsApp now lets you save contacts directly within the app, without adding them to your phone’s general contact list. This is ideal for temporary connections, and if you lose your phone, you can still access these numbers when you restore WhatsApp on a new device.
Like and Reshare WhatsApp Status Updates
WhatsApp introduces a feature inspired by Instagram, allowing you to like and reshare status updates. If someone tags or mentions you in their status, you'll be notified and can choose to reshare it. This makes engaging with friends and expressing yourself even easier.
These seven new features should help improve your experience and enhance how you connect with others on WhatsApp.
