As usual, WABetaInfo reviewed the new update of the WhatsApp beta app and noticed that version 2.24.4.23 for Android brings a new look to the Status bar. Since the new design is not yet available to all beta testers, it may not appear on your device even if you have the latest version installed.
The new redesign of the Status section changes the way status updates are displayed in the Updates tab. Instead of showing circular icons along with the user’s profile picture, new design shows card-like previews of status updates, both from the user and their contacts. Previews also preview the content of status updates, such as text, images, or video. For this reason, Users can easily see what their contacts are sharing and decide whether or not to view it.
Besides, Previews make it easy to see multiple status updates from the same personUsers can click the preview to see the full list of updates.
As always, the Status section redesign is still in beta testing and it is unclear when it will be rolled out to the stable version of WhatsApp. Users will likely have to wait weeks before they see the Status bar redesign in their apps.
