While iMessage might dominate in the USA, WhatsApp remains the go-to messaging app for millions worldwide. Meta continues to enhance it with frequent updates, and the latest one introduces four exciting new ways to chat.

The badge Count feature has arrived in WhatsApp. This feature is being rolled out for chat filters. However, at present the feature is available for select users. To make WhatsApp even more useful, many new features are coming in the Meta-owned instant messaging app.

Furthermore, users can now share sticker packs through WhatsApp chats, facilitating more dynamic and expressive conversations. Another helpful enhancement is the ability to double-tap a message to react quickly, along with a streamlined method for scrolling through frequently used reactions, making interactions more efficient and interactive.

New features, effects, stickers and reactions are just part of the latest WhatsApp update designed to make chats more fun.

While WhatsApp has not specified, the new features are coming to both Android and iOS apps. However, Android users may receive the update before their iPhone counterparts. The chat app also said that it is “looking forward” to rolling out “more exciting features” this year.

WhatsApp is reportedly working on a new feature that will allow users to schedule events in individual chats. A website that tracks WhatsApp features has reported that this functionality is being tested on the WhatsApp Beta 2.
