“Quick reactions” for situations will appear in a future update. Recall that a similar feature is used on Instagram for quick replies to stories.

How will the new feature of WhatsApp be?

In short, everything will work as implemented in the Stories service on Instagram.

It is expected that 8 emoji reactions will appear soon, from a smiley with hearts instead of eyes to the “100 points” icon – the entire spectrum of main emotions caused by certain events, except purely negativity.

The reaction to the status update will be sent to the chat as a regular emoji, but it is possible that the messaging team will prepare a special version of the interface to mark the addressees of the new statuses. Also, information about the status update will appear in the chat.

Work continues on WhatsApp

The team is known to be currently working on other major improvements:

• Soon it will be possible to use the same account on different smartphones.
• Also recently there was information about the ability to add up to 32 users to voice chat.
• In addition, work is underway on subscriptions for business accounts that allow you to connect up to 10 devices, not 4, to a single account.
