The world's most used messaging app continues to evolve. And it seems that WhatsApp has left that hieratic era behind. Times when adding new features was the last resort of WhatsApp. Now we barely keep up with leaks and new features. For this reason, we are going to review the upcoming WhatsApp functions that we have already learned about and that are about to arrive For both Android and iPhone.
Live Location
This is the possibility of knowing the location of our contacts at all times. If enabled, this feature allows you to see on a map where these people are. It does not matter if it is a group or an individual chat. Useful for planning hangouts or gossiping Fortunately this feature can be turned off.

Revoke messages
It is one of the most awaited functions by users. It has been in testing for several months, and something is already known about its operation. Apparently, up to two minutes after sending a message, it is possible to click on it and revoke it. This does not cancel your submission, but rather removes you from the conversation.If the recipient never entered the chat on time, will never know what the message said

albums
Soon, when a collection of photos is sent in chat, they will be sent as an album. That is, together. Instead of taking up a long space of the conversation, one by one, they appear in the same bubble. Something really comfortable so as not to interrupt the conversation despite illustrating it with a good number of photographs. In addition, they can be shared like this, together.
Enriched notifications
Like Android, iPhone will soon be able to enjoy photos and messages directly in notifications. A good way to know what they tell us without triggering the double blue check.
