WhatsApp features coming soon: Here are the details 

New Delhi: WhatsApp is arguably the most popular messaging app in the world. The company keeps releasing new features like animated stickers, QR codes, Dark mode for the web and more every other week. This week we got to know about more such features.

Today, we will be listing the upcoming features that we will get to use in WhatsApp in the future:

Expiring Media

WhatsApp has been working on its Expiring Media feature for some time now. The feature in its development stages has had many names like self-destructing messages and disappearing messages. The feature allows users to delete an image, video or GIF they send from the receiver’s phone, once they view the item. The feature is not live in the app as of now. According to WABetaInfo, the feature will first be rolled out in a future beta release, followed by a mass stable rollout.

New call button

WhatsApp, as per a report by WABetaInfo, is rolling out a new feature in the beta version of its WhatsApp Business for Android app. This feature will unify the voice call and video call buttons into one call button. When users click on it they will see a popup button that will enable them to pick between making a video call and a voice call. This will also make room for the catalogue shortcut in the Business app that will be placed right next to the call button.

Multi-device support

Just like the Expiring Messages feature, WhatsApp has also been working on a multi-device support feature for a long time. There is no timeline as to when the feature will be released. This feature will allow users to sign in their WhatsApp account into multiple devices at a single point of time. WABetaInfo claims that WhatsApp will put allow a maximum of four devices to be signed into one account at a given point of time.

History Sync

Along with the rollout of the multi-device support feature, WhatsApp will also rollout the history sync feature which will allow users to copy all of the chats from one device to another. This along with the multi-device support feature will for the first time in WhatsApp’s history allow Android users to carry over their chats on to iPhones and vice verse.
