WhatsApp is the most used instant messaging application in the world with more than 2,000 million active users, many of them with iPhones in their possession and with whom they will be able to enjoy the new update of the iOS application, now available on the App Store .
According to a report published on the website of T3the latest version of the application has built-in support for iOS’s picture-in-picture (PiP) featurewhich allows users put a video chat in a small window that stays on the screen while you do other things on your phone.
Interestingly, the picture-in-picture feature already existed in FaceTime, which is why iPhone netizens know about it. However, this really useful feature is now coming to WhatsApp, probably an app that they use more than Apple’s video calling app.
While support is built right into the app, Meta’s instant messaging app will be rolling out the feature in the coming weeks, so if you don’t already have it or it’s not available on the App Store, don’t worry, it’s coming soon with other news.
Bug fixes and security updates
If you already updated WhatsApp recently, you have bug fixes and security updates. The news adds more functionality to the app, which remains the number 1 in its sector, especially due to the constant updates it receives.
The other new features of the app are very useful. Now you can add subheadings when you’re sending documents and there’s support for topics and longer group descriptions so you can get a little more lyrical when you’re organizing your chats.
Also you can create custom avatars, which you can then use for stickers and profile pictures. You’ll find that feature in Settings > Avatar.
