WhatsApp has introduced new features to its platform including QR Codes and Stickers.
The messaging app continues to pump up the platform with new features now and then. They recently announced a new limit on Message Forwarding, refreshed group video/voice calls with up to 8 people and rolled out Dark Mode.
The new features include:
Animated Stickers: Stickers are one of the fastest growing ways people communicate on WhatsApp, with billions sent every day. We are rolling out new animated sticker packs that are even more fun and expressive.
QR codes: We are making it easier than ever to add a new contact. Soon when you meet someone new, you will be able to scan their QR code to add them to your contacts. No more tapping in their digits one at a time.
Dark mode for WhatsApp web and desktop: The incredibly popular Dark Mode theme now extends to your computer.
Improvements to group video calls: With now up to 8 people on a video call, we’ve made it easier to focus on whoever you want by letting you press and hold to maximize a participant’s video to full screen. We also added a video icon in group chats of 8 or less, so you can easily start a group video call with 1-tap.
Status comes to KaiOS: KaiOS users can now enjoy the popular feature that lets you share updates that disappear after 24 hours.
The features will be rolling out to users over the next few weeks, in the latest versions of WhatsApp.
