WhatsApp Status Gets a Creative Upgrade.
WhatsApp has recently introduced a fresh set of updates to its Status feature, aiming to enhance user engagement and creativity. These additions are designed to make sharing moments — whether simple daily highlights or major life events — more expressive and interactive. While some of the features may feel familiar, particularly to Instagram users, they bring a new level of personalization to WhatsApp’s platform.
One of the major highlights is the new layout tool that allows users to create collage-style statuses by combining up to six images in a single post. This feature gives more flexibility in how visuals are presented. Additionally, WhatsApp has added the ability to share music directly on your status, allowing users to set a specific song or use a music sticker to reflect their current mood or moment, similar to the experience on Instagram.
Another creative upgrade includes the introduction of custom photo stickers. Users can now turn images into stickers, resize them, and adjust their shape to fit their desired look before sharing them on Status. The “Add Yours” sticker, a popular interactive feature from Instagram, is also being added. This enables users to start or join conversation threads by responding to a shared prompt, making the Status feature more community-driven and engaging.
