Title: WhatsApp - New Features
description: WhatsApp is a messaging app that is very popular all over the world. Due to the coronavirus pandemic raging around the world, interest in communicating
WhatsApp has grown significantly. A large part of the contacts just moved to the Internet. We found out that an instant messaging app is working on a new feature that will allow users to view their contacts' status updates by simply clicking on their profile photo. At the moment, the application has a dedicated tab to view the status updates of your contacts.
What will the next modern feature be? When a user clicks on the profile picture of any of their contacts, the app will display an option asking if they want to view a status update or a profile picture. The user can select the desired option. It's worth noting that this is something similar to what we've seen with Twitter Fleets. At the moment, we do not know yet when this feature will be implemented for all users. As a reminder, this feature is under development and has not yet been released to WhatsApp beta testers.
So, even if you have the latest beta of WhatsApp for Android, you won't be able to see this feature of clicking on your profile picture to view the contact's status update.
We found out that a Display Once feature was enabled some time ago, which is similar to the Disappear Message feature. This feature is now available to most users.
