Focus on user experience
Application updates are intended to improve people's experience with the tool. Things are no different with WhatsApp. Some changes were released after constant requests from users.
The reasons for requesting the new features are diverse. They range from privacy maintenance, file sharing and improvements to ease the handling of the application, such as the chance to delete messages and pause the recording of an audio to resume it in a moment later.
New updates are being added to the tool.
Features like those already mentioned are available for both Android and iOS users. In addition to smartphones, the changes are also present in WhatsApp Web and Desktop. See the freshest news below.
Undo the 'delete for me'
If you have deleted a message to yourself by mistake, you can undo it. In this way, the deleted message will come back. The update is currently only available for iOS.
create polls
Did you know that it will now be possible to create polls in groups? Yes! And up to 12 options can be added for people to respond. Unfortunately, only Android users can access this tool.
hide online status
One of the novelties most awaited by users reaches all phones! In addition to “last seen”, you can hide when you are online in the app. Just go to privacy settings and make the change.
import backup
Mobile backup stores photos and other important media. With this tool, the individual will be able to make essential files available to be accessed in the application.
edit sent message
You can now edit text messages that were sent with errors. You know when you want to write something, but the proofreader makes you feel ashamed? This situation no longer needs to be repeated! So far, it is only valid for WhatsApp in the computer version.
Countdown for voice calls
Before initiating a call, a countdown of a few seconds will appear on the screen. This prevents a connection by mistake. If you hang up before it ends, the recipient of the call will not even be notified.
