WhatsApp Update

New Feature

WhatsApp is known for its frequent updates, and this time it’s changing the way replies are displayed. According to WABetaInfo, the platform is currently working on a feature that groups all replies to the same message into a single thread. This new feature was spotted in an Android update available through the Google Play Beta Program.

Current vs. New Feature

Currently, WhatsApp allows users to reply directly to a message, showing the original message above the new one. However, to see earlier replies or the first quoted message, users have to click through each response. The new update will change this by displaying all messages in the thread in one place, making conversations easier to follow.

Availability and Benefits

The update is currently under development and is expected to be available in individual and group chats, as well as in communities and channels. This new feature will be particularly beneficial for communities and channels, where it’s often difficult to keep track of ongoing conversations among multiple participants. Although there’s no official release date yet, it’s likely to be available soon, given its appearance in a beta version.
