There is no doubt that anyone who is on WhatsApp loves its status update feature and the Meta-owned company is making it even better with two new features. The first is the ability to like status updates, and the second is personal mentions. Both of these features have been in beta for some time, but are now officially available for everyone’s devices.
status like gives you quick send similar feedback To the person who has shared the status. all you have to do is tap heart symbol Next to the caption bar on WhatsApp to like the status. preferences are personalSo only you and the person whose status you liked will know about it and they will be able to see it in the viewers list. This makes it easier to interact and respond to someone’s status updates.
There is another new feature private mention for whatsapp statusThink of it as similar to tagging someone in your Story on Instagram, except that only you and the person you mentioned know about it. In short, only the person you mention will know about it, everyone else won’t see your status.
People you mention can also reshare your status as their own, but no one else will have any idea about it. This is a great way to keep things a secret between you and your special someone. These features are rolling out to everyone and should be available to you soon.
These new features will definitely make conversations on WhatsApp more fun and engaging. And I’m personally liking the private mention feature. I can mention my friends and put inside jokes as my status updates, so only we get a chance to share that laugh with each other. Have you got these new WhatsApp status features yet?
