That WhatsApp is continuously working to improve the tool is a reality that we see and verify week after week. And there is not a day that we do not receive the news of some interesting news for the operation of the application and the comfort of users.
This time we have to talk about stickers, but also about shortcuts. And it is that WhatsApp is testing the possibility of integrating the famous stickers in the notification section of messages.Although it is a feature that has not yet reached users, the WABetaInfo medium, a regular in this type of leak, has revealed that the function is being tested. Which indicates that, if everything progresses normally, we could soon have it on our WhatsApp.
But what exactly is this improvement? What will the stickers look like and why might we find this feature useful?
Stickers in the WhatsApp notifications section
How will all this work? Well, first of all, it must be said that this new feature has reached the beta version of WhatsApp for iOS, which is the one that corresponds to this number 2.19.50.21. This option is also being tested in the beta of Android version 2.19.130.
What will happen when it becomes fully operational will be that when you receive a sticker from one of your contacts, you will be able to see it in its entirety and in all its magnitude within the same notification section.It will be a kind of preview, which will allow and facilitate not having to open the application every time someone sends you something. In this case messages with stickers.
Although it is true that this is not a very relevant feature for our day to day, users who usually communicate with stickers may find it particularly useful. Or, at least, make it easier to use WhatsApp in your daily exchanges.
For now you will not find this function available
Be careful, if you are a fan of stickers and you were wanting to try this feature, you still won't be able to. As explained in WABetaInfo, this is an option that is being tested in betas, which means that it is not yet available to common users. Much less for those who are not subscribed to the beta versions of WhatsApp.
It should also be taken into account that this is a minimal, very small feature that will surely arrive on board a more important update, which includes other improvements and most relevant characteristics in general. It is believed, however, that this new function for stickers will not take too long to be available. In any case, we will remain attentive to inform you about your arrival.
