WhatsApp to Introduce Status Notifications and Location-Sharing Features

According to a recent leaks by WABetaInfo, WhatsApp mobiles apps might expect two newly features; live location sharing to its app, for ease in finding people, and a newly improved WhatsApp Status feature.

As we keep waiting for the edit and revoke sent message feature, we can still hold on these newly introduced ones.

WABetaInfo in a tweet shared screenshots of the location-sharing feature. The option is only available in group chats, where you can enable your live location accessible to the specified audience for a 1 to 5 minutes or indefinitely.

There’s a new ‘Show My Friends‘ option that comes off by default.

WABetaInfo according to online source, continued to mention that the social messaging platform is also working on a ‘Status Notification‘ feature that notifies users when one of their contacts changes their status message.

These updates are available for WhatsApp Beta versions 2.17.3.28 for iPhone and 2.16.399 for Android.
