CONTEXT MENU
Some weeks ago, we posted news about a redesigned context menu on WhatsApp beta for Windows and everyone has really appreciated the new feature. Unfortunately, it has been immediately removed in the next update: we didn't know why the team decided to remove the redesigned context menu, but probably it is due to the missing spelling action menu. Today, the company has released the WhatsApp beta for Windows 2.2230.4.70 update that brings the redesigned context menu back, but there is even more:
As you can see in this screenshot, the redesigned context menu is really back and WhatsApp has also added a new action called "Spelling": this is exactly what was missing in one of the previous update. This addition makes us understand that the team really wants to improve the beta app, so we should expect more features and improvements in the next updates.
The second version of the redesigned context menu is available to all users that install the latest WhatsApp for Windows beta build from the Microsoft Store today.
