Upcoming WhatsApp features
WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging apps in the world, with over 2 billion users. The app is constantly adding new features and updates to improve its functionality and user experience. In this blog post, we will look at some of the upcoming WhatsApp features that are expected to launch in 2023.
1. Edit message:
This feature will allow users to edit their sent messages within a certain time limit, similar to Telegram. This can be useful for correcting typos or changing the content of a message. The edited message will have an indicator to show that it has been modified.
2. Video once audio: 
This feature will enable users to send videos that can only be played once and then disappear, similar to the view once feature for photos. However, video once audio will also have a sound, unlike view once photos. This can be useful for sending sensitive or confidential videos that you don't want to be saved or forwarded.
3. Companion mode:
This feature will allow users to link a secondary mobile device to their existing WhatsApp account, such as a tablet. This will enable users to access their chats and calls on both devices simultaneously, without needing to scan a QR code or use WhatsApp Web. This can be useful for switching between devices or using a larger screen for video calls.
4. Business directory:
This feature will allow users to discover and contact local businesses that use WhatsApp Business. Users will be able to search for businesses by category, location, or name, and see their profiles, ratings, and reviews. Users will also be able to chat with businesses directly from the app, without needing to save their numbers. This can be useful for finding products or services, making inquiries, or placing orders.
5. Screen lock for WhatsApp Desktop:
This feature will allow users to lock their WhatsApp Desktop app with a password or biometric authentication, such as fingerprint or face ID. This will prevent unauthorized access to their chats and calls on their computer, especially if they share it with others. This can be useful for enhancing privacy and security.
