In order to improve user experience and interface, WhatsApp is working on a number of updates. The “Kept messages” feature is reportedly being developed for the instant messaging app owned by Meta. According to Bestinfo, the feature will be included in a future update of WhatsApp beta for Android, iOS, and desktop.
Notably, a kept message is a disappearing message that, for a brief period of time after its expiration time, is converted to a regular WhatsApp message.
Keeper messages are accessible in a new section of chat info. The name of this section is “Kept Messages.” These messages are open to all participants in the conversation.
The website that tracks the most recent updates for WhatsApp stated that when disappearing messages are enabled in a particular chat, they cannot be started but can only be kept. The function is still being developed.
According to the website’s additional information, “This feature is still in development, but WhatsApp is working to introduce the feature by presenting some information about an upgrade of disappearing messages in a future update of WhatsApp Desktop beta.”
In preparation for a future update, WhatsApp is also working on the feature of avatar creation. On WhatsApp, avatars are a new way to be yourself. Additionally, users will be able to use avatars during video calls and even apply stickers to them. Facebook’s avatar profile will be integrated into the application. Avatar customization is available to WhatsApp users.
