Now you can chat, call, and connect with ease, all from your wrist! WhatsApp is now available on Wear OS smartwatches, making it easier than ever to stay in touch with friends and family. With the app, you can view messages, send texts, voice messages, emojis, and make calls directly from your wearable device. Plus, if you have an LTE-capable smartwatch, you can enjoy WhatsApp even without your phone nearby. Embrace the freedom of communication with WhatsApp on Wear OS.
WhatsApp is releasing its Wear OS app now to build momentum for Samsung’s Unpacked event next week. This is because the new Galaxy Watch 6 is expected to run Wear OS 4, and releasing the WhatsApp app now will make Wear OS more appealing to WhatsApp’s 2.24 billion active users.
WhatsApp has a massive user base, so releasing the app on Wear OS will help to expand the reach of Wear OS. This is important because Wear OS is currently a relatively small platform, and Meta is looking to grow its wearable presence.
Wear OS is an established platform, which means that there is already a large user base and a wide range of apps available. This makes it a good platform for Meta to expand its wearable presence, especially since it shelved its own smartwatch ambitions last year.
WhatsApp is developing several new features, including Chat Lock and message editing. The company is releasing these features faster than before, but some are still being tested. Additionally, WhatsApp is working on a new feature that changes how context menus work.
According to the latest report, WhatsApp is currently testing a redesigned context menu, which is in the beta phase. Screenshots shared by WABetaInfo provide an initial preview of the new appearance. In the current version, when you tap and hold a message to select it, only a few emoji reactions are displayed, while other options like delete and forward are located on the top toolbar.
Only WhatsApp beta testers have access to the new context menu feature
In the latest version of WhatsApp (v2.23.11.4), a context menu for messages has been observed. The redesigned context menu resembles the one found in the iOS app. It includes options such as Delete, Forward, Reply, and Info, which are presented in a drop-down list. Emoji reactions continue to be displayed above the message itself.
The new WhatsApp context menu is currently in development and is not yet available to all users. It is currently being tested by WhatsApp beta testers. However, the introduction of this updated message context menu indicates that WhatsApp aims to achieve consistency in design across different operating systems. This redesign also brings a fresh and modern touch to the existing WhatsApp app, giving it a more contemporary appearance.
The WhatsApp developer team’s work to improve this popular instant messaging service continues unabated, and now a new beta version 2.22.25.22 of the application dedicated to Android-based devices was released.
What’s new in WhatsApp Beta for Android version 2.22.25.22:
Among the many features being worked on by the developers is the ability for users to respond to a message within a community ad group, which is not currently planned because the list of participants is private and the reaction would reveal the phone numbers.
As seen in this screenshot from the WABetaInfo staff relating to its new ad group, a persistent banner is displayed at the top inviting users to update their WhatsApp version in order to respond to messages (this will be necessary for how much developers are working to hide phone numbers within that group).
When the ability to respond to messages is available within the community ad group, your response will no longer be linked to your phone number, which will be a significant privacy improvement. There is currently no information on when this new feature will be available to all users.
