WhatsApp has announced the rolling out of a few new features for status updates.
Meta-owned instant messaging platform claims that with the new feature, WhatsApp Status significance as the best way to stay connected with friends and family and the new features will be enhanced.
With the new feature, users can now go ahead and like status from others, while also able to reshare a status they are mentioned in. Also, users will now have the opportunity to privately mention — tag others — their contacts in status updates.
WhatsApp noted in a blog post: “Make sure those closest to you see your status, and let them reshare it easily with their audience, by privately mentioning them.”
Also with the feature, those who are mentioned in status updates will be notified privately, and the mention won’t be shown on their status.
Status likes is like any other like functionality on other platforms. With a single tap of the button, users will be able to like their contacts’ status updates. WhatsApp said that status likes are private and don’t have a counter, so only the person whose status you liked can see them in the list of viewers.
“We’ll be bringing more features to Status and the Updates tab over the next few months to make it easier to stay closest to those who matter most,” added WhatsApp.
Meta-owned instant messaging platform WhatsApp, is known for routinely rolling out new features for better engagement.
