According to a report by WABetaInfo, the latest version of the messaging app brings a new menu to switch between audio and video messaging modes. The new button is available to some beta testers on iPhones.
WhatsApp’s mode-switching button availability
The new menu to switch between audio and video message mode is available to some beta testers. This button will be available for testers who install the latest versions of WhatsApp beta for iOS from the TestFlight app. The mode-switching button is expected to roll out to more users over the coming days.
How will this button work
The report also includes screenshots that explain how this new button will work on WhatsApp on iPhones. As per the report, when users tap either the microphone or camera icon, a new menu may now become visible.
This menu will enable users to choose between audio and video message modes. Earlier, WhatsApp would automatically switch to the other mode when the audio or video button was tapped. However, with the latest update, WhatsApp has introduced this menu to simplify the selection process.
Instead of switching automatically, WhatsApp will offer a better user experience by allowing users to choose between the audio and video modes. This feature will offer both control and flexibility for users.
With this option, users will be able to decide on a brief voice message or a quick video message based on their needs. Also, automatic switching can sometimes lead to accidental mode changes. With a manual menu, users can ensure that the mode they pick is the one they will use, reducing the likelihood of unexpected switches.>>>CONTINUE FULL READING HERE
