- Fire up WhatsApp, and navigate to Settings > Linked Devices.
- Tap Multi-device Beta (or link new devices).
- You'll then be guided to scan a QR code on your additional devices to connect 'em up. Boom! More screens, fewer problems.
Pro tip: If you're also rocking a watch with Wear OS, make sure to read up on WhatsApp on Wear OS—guessing some minor inconveniences might be worth it.
2) Control who sees your WhatsApp status updates
Get ready to parade your life like a chaotic, digital runway. With this feature, you can decide who gets to gawk at your WhatsApp status like it's the Gram. Do remember to add comments, though, because voice notes on statuses are a thing now, and emojis are always allowed. Besides, you'll see a green circle around a buddy's pic in your chat list whenever they update a status.
3) Lock down individual chats with fingers (or your face)
Keeping your conversations private has never been easier. Just swipe right and lock up any chat with your fingerprint or facial recognition for added privacy. Unlock it with the same quick 'n easy method!
4) Get hip to Channels
If you're keen on Telegram, you'll love this WhatsApp feature. Channels are fucking awesome for broadcasting messages on a large scale. They're perfect for brands or content creators, giving them an easy way to reach out to their followers. Plus, now you can choose to follow interesting channels of your own—and who doesn't love that?
5) Transfer chats like a pro without using Google Drive
Don't feel like relying on cloud storage for your chat history? No worries, fam. WhatsApp offers a smoother way to transfer your chat history from one Android device to another—or even to an iPhone—without hassling with Google Drive. Just select the Transfer chats via cable option when setting up WhatsApp on your new device, and follow the prompts for a hassle-free transition.
By mastering these new WhatsApp features, you're leveling up your messaging game and streamlining your digital life like a pro. Make sure to up your status updates, lock down your chats, and get involved on Channels—it's the future, y'all.
