WhatsApp image capability changed

WhatsApp image capability has changed, and watching videos or conversations while chatting or browsing menus is better than ever.

A new update of WhatsApp messengers was registered through the Google Play Beta Program, which offers version 2.21.22.3 of this application. As always, the WaBetaInfo website is exploring this software package and its new features.

There seems to be a new and redesigned version of the WhatsApp image feature in this version that allows you to view video links shared through the app itself. This change is only different in terms of design. The previous version offered controls for play / pause, share and go to the full screen window, while the redesigned version offers a control bar feature.

The pictures above say it all. Now all the controls related to the video in the image have gone to a gray bar below the video itself. This change is only apparent and in practice works like the previous version. However, taking video controls out of the picture box can provide a better visual experience for the user.

Previous limitations of WhatsApp image capability are still present in the new version of the user interface. You can only use video links of YouTube, Instagram, Facebook as well as ShareChat‌ and Stremable in this section. This feature also supports video calling.

The redesigned version of PiP is currently only in the trial version of the WhatsApp app, but we will probably see it in the final stable versions soon.
