WhatsApp has recently submitted a new update through the TestFlight Beta Program, bringing the Business version up to 2.19.120.11.
I always recommend to back up your chat history before updating to the new beta: if there is something wrong with the update, your messages are safe on iCloud and you can downgrade to the precedent version from TestFlight or App Store.
Let’s find out together what is new ..
- All features and changes listed in this article will be available in the next version on the App Store, the 2.19.120 official update.
Some of these changes might be already implemented in the next WhatsApp Messenger beta version. - If you want to join the WhatsApp Business beta program on TestFlight, you can consider to join my Discord Server, in order to receive push notifications when a beta access is available (if the beta program is currently closed), or check out my TestFlight page every day.
- If you are curious to join other beta programs (including WhatsApp Messenger), you can visit my TestFlight page: a great collection of a lot of beta links.

- At moment there aren’t issues. If we see some reports on Twitter, we will list them here.
In the 2.19.110.17 and 2.19.110.21 iOS beta updates, WhatsApp has implemented a new Splash Screen for both WhatsApp Messenger and Business apps:
After rebranding the Facebook Logo, WhatsApp has redesigned the Splash Screen, adding references to Facebook:
The same logo has been implemented in WhatsApp Settings, redesigning the old footer:
Note that a lot of users, with the versions above mentioned, complained about the slowness at the launch of the app, saying that the Splash Screen slowed down the app. We can confirm that this is not true, and the new Splash Screen doesn’t afflict the speed of the launch of the app.
