San Francisco: WhatsApp is improving its features at a lightning speed and now the latest news is that the bottom navigation toolbar is being added for the Android platform after iOS.
Many technology websites have reported that on one hand WhatsApp is being improved visually and on the other hand its tools are increasing. Now its new trial version 2.23.8.4 has added new navigation bar which is visible at the bottom.
In the navigation bar you will see four areas that show Chats, Communities, Status and Calls. Although they were there earlier, they have now been redesigned. A similar navigation bar is already in use in iOS and is now offered for the Android platform.
But WhatsApp has not definitively said when this facility will be rolled out globally. However, analysts insist that it will be visible on the WhatsApp interface in the next few weeks.
The app, created by Meta Company, features an earlier Instagram-style text editor and the security feature has also been made more effective.
