You must know about this new camera feature

Sometimes it’s the little things that make a big impact. This is exactly what should apply to the new camera function in WhatsApp. It first appeared in a trial version of WhatsApp for Android, but is expected to arrive on all other supported devices in the future as well.

WhatsApp optimizes the camera app

The creators of WhatsApp want to keep improving the messenger. This time a small but nice change has been implemented to the camera function. In the latest beta version of WhatsApp for Android, while you are in the camera function of the messenger, switch from photo to video function (Those: WABetaInfo). So far, you have one trigger. If you press it once, a photo will be taken. Press and hold the shutter button and a video will be recorded.

While this solution is useful if you know how to record a video in WhatsApp. However, most people are used to using the pre-installed camera apps differently, and this is exactly what is now being integrated into the messenger’s camera function. But that could be just the beginning. In the current version you can choose between videos and photos. It would not be unthinkable if other modes were also integrated, as is the case with many smartphones. For example, a night mode or with filters. However, this is just speculation and not confirmed.

In WhatsApp: You need to change this setting

WhatsApp recently unlocked an important option that allows you to set your online status yourself. Then you should definitely go to the settings and look at this point. For the first time ever, you can fully determine who can see if you’re online. At the same time, you also disable stalker apps that might otherwise track and spy on you.
