Redesigned Storage Usage

WhatsApp will improve its storage section so that users are able to track their data storage in a better way. It will make the tab more interactive to deal with storage-related concerns by making the section more visually engaging.

History Sync

Right now it is difficult for users to seamlessly move between iOS and Android apps for WhatsApp as iOS data is stored in iCloud and Android data is stored in google drive. The history sync feature can help users easily copy messages and other chats from different time-frames from one device to another. In addition, it will enable them to copy their messages between both operating systems.

Multiple Device Support

As users are restricted to access their WhatsApp account only on 2 devices: a smartphone and a web app, one of the most awaited features is multiple device support. It will let users operate their own account from multiple devices at the same time, without the hassle of always being active through their main smartphone.
