WhatsApp is working on a number of new features to improve the service for its users. According to WABetaInfo, these capabilities were added to the most recent Android WhatsApp beta versions. The ability to add images to poll choices has the potential to be a top feature recently because it provides consumers with a visual depiction of each option. In addition, the business is working on events specifically for one-on-one conversations. So, let’s dive headfirst into these new WhatsApp features.
WhatsApp Photo Polls and Chat Events
A feature that WABetaInfo discovered in the latest version of WhatsApp for Android 2.25.1.17 is the ability to add photographs to the poll options. It is stated on the website that if you add a picture to one option, all of the other options should look the same. By providing a visual representation of each option and streamlining the voting process, this innovation will make polls more engaging and dynamic.
When a visual context is required to offer clarity and when word description alone is insufficient, the functionality is helpful. For example, you could vote in a photography event or a poll about design, travel, or food. The report says that the photo poll feature will only be available on channels at first. However, WhatsApp may eventually add it to both group chats and one-on-one conversations.
The most recent update to WhatsApp for Android, version 2.25.1.18, includes a new feature that allows users to create events within specific messages. In order to keep the platform consistent, these private chat events will look like those generated in group conversations.
Name, date, and optional description are required fields for this event. Feel free to provide more context if you like. It will also let you choose a finish date, a place, a link for an audio or video call for virtual meetings, and other things. The receiver will be able to choose whether to participate in the event once it has been created.
In the next weeks, these features will be released to the general public after they have been developed.
