WhatsApp is rolling out a new update for its Android beta users, introducing an enhanced way to share and create video notes within chats. The latest beta update for Android can be identified through version 2.24.14.14.
With the latest beta update, WhatsApp brings a new camera mode for video notes. Previously, users had to navigate through different interfaces to start video notes. Now, the new update adds a dedicated video note mode directly into the camera interface, eliminating the need to tap and hold separately to record.
Through the new mode, WhatsApp aims to provide a more intuitive and seamless experience to capture and share video messages with their contacts.
The new feature not only enhances usability but also improves efficiency by simplifying the process. It allows users to start recording videos more smoothly, which saves time and improves communication.
Currently, the Camera Video Note mode is available for limited beta testers. WhatsApp plans to gradually roll out this feature to more users.
Meta will allow WhatsApp users to generate AI image of themselves using artificial intelligence. WABetaInfo discovered in WhatsApp Beta v2.24.14.13 that developers are working on the development of an optional feature to allow users to generate AI images.
WhatsApp is working to deploy the AI image generation feature with the next update. It will let users take a single set of photos, which Meta AI will then use to generate AI images. The given image will be adjustable, making the AI generate images accurately.
Developers intend to bring full control over this feature to users. Ensuring security and privacy, WhatsApp’s image creator will allow you to delete setup photos at any time through the Meta AI settings. Tapping the “Imaging me” button will begin the Meta AI magic on setup photo.
As the function is under development, more updates may arrive before deployment. Once the development phase concludes, testing will take place on the Beta channel. We expect the feature to be rolled out on the Stable channel before July ends.
WhatsApp Beta 2.24.14.7
With the previous Beta (v2.24.14.7) release, it was revealed that WhatsApp was working on a feature to choose the Meta AI Llama model. This upcoming section will allow users to select between different Llama models (Llama 3-70B or Llama 3-405B) for their AI interactions.
