WhatsApp is rolling out a new feature designed to enhance user experience by allowing the addition of custom messages to forwarded content.
The feature, currently available to a limited group of beta testers, will soon make it easier for users to personalize their forwarded messages, including text, documents, and other media.Previously, WhatsApp only allowed users to add personal comments when forwarding photos, videos, or GIFs.
However, the upcoming update will extend this functionality to text messages, documents, and links, eliminating the need for users to manually add messages after forwarding content.
According to a report by WABetaInfo, this feature is currently accessible to users on WhatsApp beta for Android v2.24.25.3.
