WhatsApp users are soon going to get some new features which will help in improving your experience on the app. If reports are to be believed, the company is working on many new features for Android and iPhone users which can improve privacy, security and convenience. The beta updates of WhatsApp Android and WhatsApp iOS have revealed new features like view-once text messages, scam alerts for unknown contacts, a special voice note widget and message scheduling support. These features are currently in testing, but they give a glimpse of some of the new things that may be coming to the platform in the coming months.
scam alert
One of the most special features seen during development is the new scam alert system which may soon come to Android users. It is expected that this feature will work when users receive messages from unknown contacts. WhatsApp Can analyze suspicious content on the device and display a warning before the user continues interacting with the sender. Since the analysis is said to happen on the device itself, the company can introduce this feature without compromising its end-to-end encryption protection. If released, this tool could help users identify fraudulent messages.
voice note widget
WhatsApp may soon make voice messaging easier for users running Android smartphones. Recently, a voice note widget has been mentioned in a beta version, which can be placed on the home screen. It is expected that this shortcut will directly open the voice recording interface of WhatsApp, which will reduce the steps taken in sending audio messages. For users who use voice notes more than text messages, this widget can make daily conversations more convenient.
View-once text messages
This messaging platform already has the facility of view-once photos, videos and voice notes and now such a facility can come for text messages also. According to reports, the company is testing the view-once text message feature for iPhone users. Through this feature, as soon as the person receiving the message reads the message, the message will disappear. Initial information has also revealed that these messages will not be forwarded, copied or saved.
Scheduled Messages
The feature of scheduling messages on WhatsApp has been awaited for a long time. It is being said that the company is testing native support for scheduling messages on iPhone. According to reports, with this feature, users will be able to choose the date and time before sending the message, which WhatsApp will send your message at the scheduled time.
