WhatsApp Business unveils new branding icon 

WhatsApp Business has introduced a new branding icon, now visible on the home screen, splash screen, and notifications.

The updated icon features a plus sign, replacing the previous design with a "B" in the center. Although this change is small, it carries a meaningful message of growth and expansion, reflecting the platform's increasing reach among businesses.

This new icon was first noticed in the latest WhatsApp Business beta update for Android (version 2.25.7.6), which is now available on the Google Play Store.

While the design has been refreshed, the overall shape remains the same, ensuring it is still easy to recognize. The update highlights WhatsApp Business’s global impact, reinforcing its role in helping businesses connect with customers worldwide.

It is important to note that this update only affects the app’s appearance and does not change its features. All the existing tools for customer communication, productivity, and business management remain the same. Users will not experience any disruptions in their daily use. At present, this new icon is only for WhatsApp Business, and the regular WhatsApp Messenger icon remains unchanged. Users can access the new design by updating to the latest WhatsApp Business beta, with an iOS version expected soon.
