WhatsApp released new features for status such as voice status, status profile, rings for new updates, status reactions, and more.

WhatsApp, owned by Meta, has introduced some new features for the users. This time the ‘WhatsApp Status’ has been updated. WhatsApp has said that through these features it will be easier for users to express themselves and connect with others. Significantly, ‘WhatsApp Status’ is a popular way to share updates with your friends and relatives. Whatsapp updates disappear in 24 hours. Through this, people can share their photos, videos, etc.

WhatsApp has said that the status shared by the user is not required to be suitable for all contacts. WhatsApp will now give users the option to update their privacy settings. With this, users will be able to decide each time for whom their status will be visible. The ones selected by the user will be saved and used as the default for the next state.

Apart from this, you can also now record and share voice messages up to 30 seconds on WhatsApp status. WhatsApp says that users will be able to use Voice Status to send very personal updates. This will also take the hassle out of typing.

Users expect people to react to their status. If you want to react to someone’s status, now it will be easier. Swiping up will now show 8 emoji. By touching any of them, you can give an immediate feedback on the status.

It often happens that we miss seeing the status of people. WhatsApp says that this will not happen now. Every time someone posts a status, a ring will appear near her profile picture. It will appear in the ring, chat list, group participant list, and contact information. WhatsApp says that the new update has started rolling out to users around the world and will be available to everyone in the coming weeks.
