WhatsApp rolls out a new interface and brings that Instagram vibe
The latest update for WhatsApp beta on Android (v.2.24.1.6) introduces a new way for sharing channel updates on Status.
Currently this feature is available to select beta testers. Will be gradually rolled out to users in the upcoming weeks as reported by WABetaInfo.
As mentioned above users who have received the v.2.24.1.6 update will notice a change in interface that offers an enhanced viewing experience, for channel updates shown in status updates.
WhatsApp has introduced a new interface specifically designed to indicate that the content shared on Status originates from a channel.
How To Check The Availability Of This Update?
A channel update can be shared to one’s status by forwarding a channel update, which is the fastest way for those who wish to check if this feature is already available to their accounts.
Furthermore, it’s crucial to remember that WhatsApp has added a new entry point to the status subtitle that enables users to quickly access and view the content from the related channel.
“Making it easier for users to interact and access shared channel updates,” according to WABetaInfo’s WhatsApp experts, is the updated interface’s intuitive layout.
It’s also in line with current design trends, as they observe that “it’s very similar to the layout offered by Instagram when sharing posts as Instagram Stories.”
What does it mean for WhatsApp?
WhatsApp has taken a stride by introducing an interface showcasing the company’s dedication to adapt and thrive in the rapidly evolving digital market.
WhatsApp aims to expand its reach beyond its messaging user base despite receiving reactions regarding this decision.
To attract a large user base WhatsApp is incorporating features from media platforms such as Instagram.
This move acknowledges that the younger generation is more inclined, towards content and engaging through social media interactions.
