This is the new WhatsApp Settings menu
In WhatsApp they don't rest for a moment to improve the most used messaging application in the entire world world After the arrival of sending documents to the system, a new update for the Android platform changes the design of the Settings screen, improving its design and optimizing its resources by ordering it everything in a more visible and comfortable way for any user.A change that is not very radical,but that will help to more easily find any option that the user wants to modify.
This is not something really new, since WhatsApp showed this design a couple of weeks ago on their beta or test version However, now it lands for all users, who can appreciate the changes just by logging in to the application, click on the three points in the upper right corner, and access the menu Settings
The most remarkable thing when accessing this new screen is, without a doubt, the new space for the old Profile section Now this submenu shows the image and phrase of the profile status directly in the settings, without having to access another section.A photo that is now circular, name and status are available to be clicked and changedA subtle design change that helps first-time users interact and change the rendering of their accounts easily, with a simple tap.
The rest of the menus and options are still present in this settings screen, although in a slightly different way, with another order and, in certain cases, with another representation. This is the case of Data usage, where you can check the Internet data consumption made by WhatsApp , as well as options to download files only when the user is connected to WiFi networks , for example, that now is shown directly in this menu However, inside it we did not find changes of any kind, without its functionality having changed or having been expanded to be able to manage these options individually, according to each chat or conversation, as it happens on iPhone
Another option that has changed is that of WhatsApp payment And, after its change of business model, in the that have opted to offer the service for free, it didn't make much sense to keep the payment section of this tool. Neither to update the annual subscription that was previously requested from the user, nor to make the payment for other people if they had no way to do it on their own. Features that have been completely banished from the new screen of WhatsApp Settings due to lack of use and meaning.
At the moment, it is an update that knows little. And we already know that WhatsApp is working on more interesting things like new backgrounds for chats , the possibility of applying content download settings individually for each conversation or the new security system that ensures the identity of each userHowever, we will have to keep waiting to enjoy all these issues.
Meanwhile, it is now possible to download the latest version of WhatsApp for Android through Google Play Store totally free to see the new Settings screen changes
