The new WhatsApp symbols: what they mean and who will receive them

For several years, WhatsApp has included indicators to indicate when other chat users write a message or record a voice message and to send it in the chat you are in. Anyone who has already used the platform is therefore familiar with these indicators, which are displayed at the top of the chat, under the contact name or the group name. These indicators are “[] is writing…”, in the case of writing a message, or “[] is recording audio…”, in the case of recording a voice message. Of course, in place of the square brackets, we find the name of the contact who is carrying out the described operation. With the new update of WhatsApp, everything changes: in the chat we will no longer find the captions that we showed above but new symbols to indicate the same things When the chat partner is writing, one. animation will be displayed as long as the other user is busy with this task The second symbol will show if the other chat user is recording a voice message. These new symbols will be displayed both in individual chats and in WhatsApp groups. chat, but not on the main page that displays the chat list. In this section, we will continue to see the text captions that we described previously, at least for now. Who is this news for? It is already available on the beta version of WhatsApp for Android. Distribution is underway for everyone who owns WhatsApp for Android, and should come to iOS later.
