READING NOW Another small innovation for WhatsApp: Your WhatsApp status will now look different

It seems that WhatsApp is preparing to make an important innovation in the status update. Now when your status contains a link, a preview of that link will also be seen.

According to the news of WABetaInfo, WhatsApp is working on a very important update regarding the status option. The feature, which is not yet available to WhatsApp beta testers, is being tweaked to improve the appearance of links posted in your status on Android, iOS, and the desktop app.

Currently, links are displayed as plain text as possible, with no preview window to offer any information on what the link contains. That status is planned to change with this upcoming update, which will show links posted in your status updates, with a rich link preview showing a thumbnail, and more information on where the link will take you.

WABetaInfo has created a binary image that shows the difference between the current appearance of the links in your status updates and how they will appear in the update:

WhatsApp’s recent updates, in terms of functionality seems to be focusing on adding the features that its rivals Discord and Telegram have offered for a long time to the application. For example, many apps have offered the ability to add emoji reactions to messages for years. However, this feature has just arrived on WhatsApp.

WhatsApp has made some major strides in the past few months, but unfortunately we don’t know much more about their upcoming status updates. The news from WABetaInfo clearly states that the feature is under development and there is no information when it will be available for beta testers to try out…
