WhatsApp, the instant messaging service owned by Meta, is adding many features that surprise its users. It has recently launched some of these features that help with privacy, including automatically blocking messages from unknown accounts, which is expected to be very popular with users. The application is also working on other features under development.

In addition to the feature of displaying group descriptions to all members, WhatsApp is expanding the feature of displaying group descriptions to all members in communities, to ensure that new members are aware of the purpose and guidelines of the group from the beginning.
There is also a new feature to choose the Al voice, which WhatsApp announced its development to choose the Meta Al voice from a wide range of options. This feature is currently under development, and is scheduled to be released in a future update to the application.
There is also a feature to set the duration of group chat events for communities, which helps members better manage their tasks by knowing when events end.
This is in addition to the feature of interacting by liking status updates, and some beta testers can interact with status updates using the heart icon, and recipients can see and manage these interactions in the viewers list.
