WhatsApp users can now exchange larger files in addition to responding to conversations with emojis, as the file transfer size has been expanded from 100MB to 2GB.
WhatsApp’s message reactions function, which was unveiled last month, will now be available to all users.
It will function similarly to Facebook’s reactions, according to GSM Arena. A user must long-press on a WhatsApp message and select the emoji with which he or she wishes to respond.
According to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook post, users may currently choose from six emojis, but WhatsApp has pledged to extend compatibility for more emojis and skin tones in the future.
The message reactions feature is currently accessible for some WhatsApp users on the most recent version, but it will take a week or two until it is available to all WhatsApp users worldwide.
WhatsApp users can now exchange larger files in addition to responding to conversations with emojis, as the file transfer size has been expanded from 100MB to 2GB.
Furthermore, WhatsApp increased the maximum number of members in a group chat from 256 to 512.
According to GSM Arena, the platform is “slowly rolling out the option” to add up to 512 people to a group, meaning users will have to wait before adding more than 256 people to a WhatsApp group.
