What's new in WhatsApp when it comes to sharing videos

WhatsApp does not stop: first, they messed it up with their controversial states, those that imitated those of Facebook that imitated those of Instagram that, in turn, imitated those of Snapchat. Later, they returned to the old ones, although without discarding the new ones. Now, a couple of pretty juicy news are coming. Let's start.

Real-time location and enhanced video editing

Now you can not only share the place where you are, but all the places where you move.Ideal for parents with children or elderly relatives. We can already see this function in applications such as Messenger, Facebook or Google Maps. One more step in the invasion of privacy for some, essential help to take care of our loved ones, for others.

Now, when you go to share a video, in addition to editing, you can add text, emoticons and freehand drawings. At the top, we have the line of time, to adjust the video to the duration that we want. We just have to adjust the guides to the desired positions.

Next to it, we have the well-known Stories icons: emoji, text and pencil. If you want to place an emoticon throughout the video, write a nice message, or draw something on top, all you have to do is choose one of these options. Below we can see how the interface has changed between the old and the new version of WhatsApp.

Once you have finished editing the video with the desired emoticons and texts, you just have to share it as usual. This option to embed emojis and text in videos was only available when said video was recorded from the same WhatsApp camera.

Is this WhatsApp's way of telling us, indirectly, that the new statuses are actually better than we think? Only on Instragram have Zuckerberg and his family succeeded, that this new way of sharing life succeeds. They recently tried it with Facebook and have gotten very few followers Will they succeed with this new way of sharing videos? We will continue to inform you about it.
