After months of behind-the-scenes work, WhatsApp is finally ready to roll out a fresh and modern interface for users of its Android beta app, as reported by WABetaInfo. It is expected to arrive to all users within the next few weeks.
WhatsApp has started rolling out its updated UI for Android to a select group of beta testers. It seems that WhatsApp has chosen version 2.23.21.12 to introduce these design changes, but not all users of this version have access to the new features. This is far from the first time that WhatsApp has completely reworked its application interface.
The redesign is expected to roll out to more users in the coming weeks, according to the website. It is therefore possible that the new WhatsApp interface may take some time to arrive on your Android device, even if you are using the latest compatible beta update.
What changes for the WhatsApp interface on Android?
According to information from WABetaInfo, the revamped user interface, inspired by Material Design 3, brings new icons and colors, as well as changes to chat bubbles and floating action button. Additionally, the profile icon is now located in the upper right corner, next to the Camera and Search options. The dark and light themes have also been updated with a new green color. Fortunately, the application still maintains the same functioning as the original version, so users should not be much disoriented.
Other features being tested include a new response bar for images and videos, as well as the possibility of an iPad-compatible version of the app. If you didn’t know, Meta also recently launched a first version of its application for iPad, Apple’s tablet.
In recent months, WhatsApp has introduced several new features to improve user experience and stay competitive. These include a revamped version for macOS, HD photos and videos, instant video messages, and the ability for businesses to take orders and book tickets directly in the app using ‘a feature called Flows.
