Users will be able to share them directly from WhatsApp. Here, we provide detailed information about all the new features on WhatsApp.
New WhatsApp Features
Live and Motion Picture Sharing: iPhone and Android smartphone users will now be able to share Live Photos and Motion Photos directly from WhatsApp. These photos will be accompanied by audio and animation, like GIFs. Users will also be able to share them as videos on social media platforms.
Meta AI-Based Chat Themes: WhatsApp has also rolled out new Chat Themes, based on Meta AI. Using AI, users can create creative and custom chat themes. Chat themes are already available on the app. Now, users can add a new touch to these calls with AI.
