Meta-owned WhatsApp is working to introduce a design change to the app for Android users. The world's most popular messaging platform is now working to bring changes to its user interface, according to says WhatsApp beta tracker WABetaInfo.
"Users have been requesting a redesign of the WhatsApp interface for some time, as they feel that the current interface is outdated and not as user-friendly as it could be after the recent updates of Android. Users also asked for a more modern and intuitive way to navigate the app, making it easier and quicker to access important features such as chats, calls, communities, and status, similar to the iOS app," WABetaInfo wrote on its page.
"As a result of these user requests, thanks to the latest WhatsApp beta for Android 2.23.8.4 update, we discovered that WhatsApp is finally working on a tweaked interface for the app that includes a bottom navigation bar," WABetaInfo added.
The new WhatsApp interface will include a bottom navigation bar which is currently under development and it is likely that the new feature is released in a future update of the app.
To recall, WhatsApp recently started to launch the ability to let users edit messages even after sending them, WABetaInfo recently said. As per the WhatsApp beta for iOS 23.6.0.74 update, a new dedicated alert is under work that will inform users when their edited message has been successfully sent to everyone in a WhatsApp conversation.
Meanwhile, the Meta-owned messaging platform is also working on 15 new durations for disappearing messages. Currently, the platform supports three durations for disappearing messages. The new durations will be present under the "More options" menu. The menu will include 15 new durations -- 1 year, 180 days, 60 days, 30 days, 21 days, 14 days, 6 days, 5 days, 4 days, 3 days, 2 days, 12 hours, 6 hours, 3 hours and 1 hour.
