WhatsApp update 12.19.61
This App is bringing in improvements to make it more secure and more user-friendly. WhatsApp update 12.19.61 brought out some interesting changes which we are going to discuss below:
-
Play Consecutive Voice Messages in Android
WhatsApp will let Android users to consecutively play voice messages without having to tap on each one of them to play. This feature was already available for Beta users. If a person has sent multiple voice messages at a time, the receiver just has to play the first one and the next one will automatically play itself when the first one is finished. This cool feature has made it easy to listen to multiple voice messages at a time.
-
Profile Pictures Cannot be Saved
The new WhatsApp update would not let users save other users profile pictures which I think is a great thing. Some users never felt comfortable with the option where other contacts can save their profile pictures. It is good news for users because this option has been removed from both iOS and Android WhatsApp accounts.
-
Group Call
One of the coolest features in this update is the group call option. Now you can add up to 4 people in a call. This is a really beneficial option for friends living in different states or for a meeting. All you have to tap on “New Group Call” option or go to the corresponding group and tap on the phone+ icon given on the upper left corner of the group chat.
-
See Images through Notification
Now you don’t have to open chat to see the image sent by someone, you can see it through notification. Just pull down the notification on the iPhone to see the full image.
-
Sending Pictures on WhatsApp
Last but not least, this new option I am going to disclose is for Android users as it is already available for iOS users. Now you can see the profile picture of the contact when you’re sending an image on the top left corner of the image. This update will save you from texting images to the wrong contact.
