WhatsApp may soon allow users to add Facebook-like cover photo to profile. WhatsApp has come up with many new features for its users lately. It is currently working on plenty of features that are yet to be launched.
The Meta-owned app is said to be currently working on a new feature ‘Cover Photo’. This feature will allow users to set cover photos on their WhatsApp profiles.
“When the feature is enabled for beta testers, there will be some changes in your Business profile settings,” said WhatsApp feature tracker, WABetaInfo.
The WhatsApp feature tracker mentioned that the procedure to add cover photos is currently under development for WhatsApp Business Accounts.
How it will work
The screenshot shared by the WABetaInfo shows that the instant-messaging platform WhatsApp will most probably introduce a camera button in the user’s Business Settings. In this, users can select a photo or take a new one (whichever is most suitable) to use as a cover photo.
What will happen is that when any other user from the contact list will visit your business profile, they will be able to see your newly-set cover photo along with the profile photo and status. This also depends upon your privacy settings.
The screenshot of the new feature is from the WhatsApp Business for iOS. This will soon be available on WhatsApp Business for Android users as well. The feature, as we mentioned, is currently under development so we don’t have the exact release date yet.
Voice call feature for Web users
Soon users will make voice calls from the web version of WhatsApp. Currently, this feature is only for selected users. WhatsApp shared plans to introduce video and voice calling to the web and desktop users in October 2020.
This new feature is for beta as well as some of the non-beta testers as well. This Meta-owned platform is planning to roll this feature for more users.–techvivi.com
