WhatsApp update: new stickers, music and collages for your status!

WhatsApp announced an extensive update for its_status function, which should gradually be available to all users in the coming months. Oe24 reports that the new features will be able to share their thoughts and experiences.

The most exciting innovations include the possibility of not only using photos, but also image collages, stickers, music and voice messages in the status.

new functions and possibilities

In addition to these options, WhatsApp introduces a music sticker that enables users to choose from an extensive collection of "millions of titles" to find the right background music. According to facebook news , users can also share a song as a status or add to existing status messages.

The new sticker function allows users to transform their own photos into stickers, which they can then use in the status. In addition, there is the "Add Yours" sticker, with which users can invite friends to take part in a status report and to contribute their own pictures. This interactivity is viewed by many as a big step to promote social exchange via the platform.

visibility and privacy

One of the central properties of WhatsApp status is personal encryption. Whatsapp Blog emphasizes that status reports can only be seen from contacts from the user and automatically disappear after 24 hours. Users also have the option of individually updating their privacy settings for each status and deciding who can see the status.

With the introduction of these new functions, the possibility is also added to post voice messages directly in the status with a maximum length of 60 seconds. Contacts can now react directly to a status message by using the "Add yours" sticker. This opens up further communication channels and enables a more intensive exchange.

The update promises to significantly improve the user experience and to strengthen the connection between friends and family members, while at the same time placed a high value on personal forms of expression.
