News & Reviews:   messaging app

Now that Multi-Device is on WhatsApp, the next thing that's important for users would be authentication. After all, you won't want someone to get access to your chat by stealing your phone or laptop, right? Well, that's currently something the company is working on.

The Android version of WhatsApp might introduce more photo editing tools to users soon. If everything worked well with the beta, the next stable update would bring new brushes and a function to blur images.

While Facebook has renamed itself to Meta, most of its apps and products have avoided that awkward name change. That doesn't mean that nothing will change for apps like Facebook Messenger. In fact, sources have found new features for the platform.

In Malaysia, a lot of WhatsApp users like to send voice messages instead of text messages. That's not always good, especially if it's an important discussion and you want to keep a record. But what if you can transcribe the voice message?

We're getting more and more features for WhatsApp in recent weeks. It's reported that the company is looking to add message reactions, and recently the feature to transfer your chat history from iOS to Android was added. WhatsApp is also reworking some old features.

When it comes to social media platforms, we're usually there to enjoy content from other users. And while we're at it, we often express our thoughts through different mechanics, such as the reactions in Facebook. Well, what if more platforms got reactions?

As you know, messaging apps can be used to share a variety of different content. But besides images, the thing we mostly share are URLs. When you share links on WhatsApp, you get to see what's on the site. Now, preview links are getting an upgrade.

Sending images on WhatsApp can be a hassle for some of us as the messaging app compresses almost everything you want to share. However, things might change soon as it's spotted that the platform is currently developing features that let users choose the quality of images and videos sending out in chats.

Disappearing messages is probably one of the most sought after features for messaging apps these days. Some users would like to have their texts go away forever after the recipients read them, be it for cleaning purposes or getting rid of something they don't want others to read. After letting its users send messages that disappear after seven days, WhatsApp is now rolling out the function for photos and videos to Android beta users.

Due to WhatsApp's new privacy policy, many users have been moving to other messaging apps. We even wrote a short article introducing some other alternatives you could use. If you are considering Telegram, the app has just gotten a major update.
