If you take a look at your smartphone's data storage, there's a good chance that WhatsApp is one of the highest storage space app hoggers, no thanks to the millions of photo and video spams sent by friends and family. Thankfully, the WhatsApp team have finally rolled out a new Storage Management Tool for better and easier file management.

Good news to entrepreneurs who run a business on Facebook, as the company will make business transaction easier soon. The businesses can directly sell their products on WhatsApp and the buyers can directly make an order from there.

As WhatsApp continues to add on new features and support for the app and website, it seems that they have sneakily added a new Mute option into our apps and web browser without us knowing. This was confirmed on the WhatsApp's official Twitter.

Based on a statement by wabetainfo.com, it seems that the developers of WhatsApp could be planning on introducing Facial Recognition for Android smartphones in the future. While there is no official information in regards to when the feature will be officially available, there’s also no info on which smartphone will support it as well.

Based on a statement by WABetaInfo.com, it seems that the developers of WhatsApp might be keen on implementing WhatsApp voice and video call to WhatsApp web. Currently, if you are interested in engaging in either a voice or video call on WhatsApp, you can only do it on either a smartphone or a tablet.

It seems that a screenshot posted by @wongmjane on Twitter seems to showcase Facebook’s upcoming feature that they’ve been working on, in order to help you manage your timeline better. While there’s no news on when the feature will be officially rolled out to the public, we do know that it is currently in testing, which means that it could be available within a month or two.

A few months ago, we have mentioned that WhatsApp is working on the option to let users mute their chats forever. Now, it looks like the feature will be rolled out to everyone soon as some users have gotten the update. Other than that, they are also going to upgrade the storage interface which will give more insight to users regarding consumption.

Based on a statement by wabetainfo.com, it seems that WhatsApp could soon have a feature called “Expiring media” sometime in the near future which could allow users to send pictures and video that expire after a certain duration. While not much is known in regards to when this feature will be rolled out to the masses, our source also mentioned that it might also notify the sender if the recipient were to screenshot the sent media.

Based on a statement by wabetainfo.com, it seems that WhatsApp could allow users to have their account signed in to up to 4 devices at the same time. While there is no news on when this feature will be available, this means that signing into another device will not sign the user out of the previous device they were using.

Based on a report by wabetainfo.com, it seems that Facebook could be working on a new WhatsApp feature where the user will be required to scan their fingerprint in order to log in to WhatsApp Web. With that said, this means that WhatsApp web would not only be more secure, but it will also notify the user if an unauthorized login were to occur.
