WhatsApp has released a new update through the Google Play beta program, which allows users to view status updates directly on the chat screen. To be mentioned this new feature will eliminate the necessity to open the updates tab separately to view them.
After installing the latest WhatsApp beta version, you will be able to see the person’s status directly through the chat screen. The status updates can be visible on the conversation screen as the status rings around the profile photo, making this feature even more convenient for users.
This means that you can also quickly catch up on status updates from your contacts when opening a conversation with them. This will not only enhance efficiency but also contribute to a more user-friendly experience.
To be mentioned, if you choose to mute status updates from a particular contact, you won’t see them when you open the conversation with that contact.
Moving on, the feature to view status updates from the conversation screen is available to some beta testers who install the latest WhatsApp beta and it will expand to more people over the coming weeks.
However, this integration is similar to Instagram Stories, which allows users to view stories within their conversations without the need to switch between tabs or screens.
