WhatsApp announced this Wednesday 1-J that in the coming weeks it will implement new functions for its millions of users, among them more expressive animated “stickers”; QR codes to add contacts or improvements in group video calls.
Stickers are one of the most popular communication tools among WhatsApp users and, as the application explains on its blog, new packages of these animated elements are being launched that are “even more fun and expressive”.
Regarding QR codes, WhatsApp points out that soon, when a user meets someone, they will be able to scan their QR code to add it to their contacts. With this option it will no longer be necessary to enter each phone number manually.
There will also be changes for WhatsApp Web and Desktop, which will allow dark mode.
In addition, improvements are planned for group video calls: now that they support up to eight participants at a time, if a user wants to focus their attention on one of them in particular, they only have to hold their finger on the video to maximize it as a way of fullscreen.
A video icon is also added in group chats of eight people or less, so you can easily start a video call with a single touch.
Regarding the availability of the states in KaiOS, its users will be able to enjoy the function that allows sharing states that disappear after 24 hours.
According to the application, all these functions will be published for users in the coming weeks in the latest versions of WhatsApp.
