REDESIGNED TOAST VIEW

In the article about the WhatsApp beta for iOS 22.18.0.70 update, we explained that WhatsApp introduced the ability to recover messages deleted by accident within a few seconds. This feature has also been made available to users of the stable version of the app from the App Store after installing the WhatsApp for iOS 22.19.75 update.
More recently, the WhatsApp beta for iOS 23.1.0.71 update was released on the TestFlight app that brings a redesign of the toast view that appears when deleting messages:

As you can see in the attached screenshot, WhatsApp is introducing a new interface for the toast view. The new design features rounded borders and a translucent view, similar to the focus mode system toast. This may appear in various situations, such as when submitting feedback for the quality of WhatsApp calls or when sharing a new status update. Although this is a minor change, we believe that any improvement to the user interface is always appreciated.

As additional news for this version, we can confirm that it includes a fix for the crash issue that some users experienced when opening the app after installing the WhatsApp beta for iOS 23.1.0.70 update.

The redesigned toast view has been released to all beta testers after installing the latest beta update from the TestFlight app so be sure to install this update to get it.
