MESSAGE SUMMARIZATION
- After installing the WhatsApp beta for iOS 25.14.10.72 update, some beta testers can now open certain business-related links directly within WhatsApp using a new in-app browser. This feature supports only HTTPS-secured business websites that meet specific technical requirements, ensuring a safe browsing experience. Users still have the option to open links in their default browser through the menu for added flexibility.
- In the article about the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.25.15.7 update, we announced that WhatsApp is working on a feature that will let users generate custom chat wallpapers using Meta AI. Accessible through the chat theme settings, this tool will allow users to enter text prompts and receive AI-generated wallpaper options tailored to their device screen. Users can apply these wallpapers globally or per chat and refine them iteratively for a more personalized experience.
- With the update, some users can now access a content sticker called "Add Yours" that lets them start interactive status chains using prompts like questions or challenges. Each person who taps the sticker can post their own response as a private status update, visible only to their selected contacts. It's worth noting that participants can't see who else has joined the chain, ensuring privacy and anonymity for everyone involved.
- Following the release of the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.25.15.12 update, we announced that WhatsApp is testing a feature that lets users privately summarize new messages using Meta AI. The summaries are processed securely through Private Processing, ensuring that neither WhatsApp nor Meta can access the message content. This feature won't be available in chats with Advanced Chat Privacy enabled, respecting user choices to avoid AI involvement.
- With the WhatsApp beta for iOS 25.14.10.76 update, some beta testers can now upload video status updates up to 90 seconds long, expanding the previous 60-second limit. This change improves user convenience by allowing longer clips to be shared without splitting them into multiple segments.
- The WhatsApp beta for Android 2.25.15.13 update brings the new "Add Yours" content sticker to status updates to start interactive chains on custom topics. Each participant's response is shared independently, maintaining privacy and end-to-end encryption.
- In the article covering the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.25.15.19 update, we announced that some beta testers can try a new unified voice message recording experience across chats, groups, and channels. Instead of pressing or swiping, users now just tap the microphone button once to start recording with lock mode automatically enabled.
- The WhatsApp beta for Android 2.25.15.22 update suggests that WhatsApp is testing a new accessibility feature that allows users to increase color contrast for better visibility. A dedicated accessibility section will be added to the app settings, offering users more control over how interface elements appear. This update aims to improve usability for people with visual impairments and marks the beginning of broader accessibility support.
