UNKNOWN BUSINESS ACCOUNTS
Some hours ago, we have published some details about a new way to show in-app chat alerts when you receive a message from unknown business accounts, on the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.21.24.5 update. Today, more beta testers can use the same feature on the latest iOS beta too!
As you can see in this screenshot, when you receive a message from unknown business accounts, a different and updated view is shown: this view explains that you have received a message from a business that's not saved in your contact list. In this case, you can choose between two different options: block or save in your contact list.
The redesigned view is available to specific beta testers, and more activations will be following in the next updates.
