WhatsApp might be working on an interesting new feature for its popular chat application for desktops. The company could soon offer animated emojis on its messaging platform, so here are all the details.
WhatsApp Animated Emojis might soon hit the beta
Meta is reportedly working on this feature that would like to add a new interactive/expressive element to chats. This feature might soon be available on an upcoming beta for the WhatsApp desktop app. The news arrives from WABetaInfo who also shared a GIF that showcases this feature. Looking at this animated emoji, we can see the Party Horn and Party Hat emoji bouncing around as it does a full 360 degree rotate.
It is unclear how exactly one accesses these animated emojis, but WhatsApp might share the animated version of a specific emoji instead of the static one if the user only sends a single emoji. Keep in mind that it also needs a animated version to offer this functionality. Since the feature is supposedly making its way to the WhatsApp desktop beta, we can expect it to also be soon available in the smartphone mobile beta app version as well.
With animated emoji’s, the userbase can expect to have a new have of interaction and expression in group chats. This, in turn, will make the chatting experience more fun and have the platform better company with iMessage and even Google’s Messages app that have supported animated emojis for years now.
