CAMERA SHORTCUT
In the article about the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.22.19.7 update, we posted news about a camera shortcut, a new entry point for those users that can already create a community. This is needed because WhatsApp automatically replaces the camera tab with the communities tab so the team is planning to introduce a new shortcut for the camera.
After releasing the WhatsApp beta for iOS 22.19.0.75 update from TestFlight, we noticed that the shortcut is now under development on the iOS beta app as well:
As you can see in this screenshot, the camera shortcut is placed within the navigation bar and it will show up for those users that can already create a community in the future. It looks exactly like the one implemented on WhatsApp beta for Android (but since there was a bug, it has temporarily been removed in another update).
Since this shortcut is now under development, it is still not visible to users because WhatsApp plans to release it in a future update of the app. As always, we will keep you up to date when there is news about the camera shortcut in a future beta build.
