WhatsApp Enhances User Experience: Longer Statuses and Quick UPI Payments on the Horizon
WhatsApp is exploring innovative updates to make its platform even more user-friendly. Among the new features being tested are extended status updates and a faster method for UPI payments.
The upcoming update may allow users to share longer videos, extending the status video limit from 30 seconds to 60 seconds. This enhancement provides users with greater flexibility in sharing their stories and experiences.
Additionally, WhatsApp is piloting a convenient QR code scanner shortcut for UPI payments in India. Positioned prominently at the top of the chat list, this shortcut eliminates the need for users to navigate through menus to access the QR scan option. With just a tap, users can scan QR codes swiftly, facilitating faster peer-to-peer transactions.
Both features are currently undergoing testing in the Android beta version of WhatsApp. Once finalized, they are expected to be rolled out to all users in a future update. These updates underscore WhatsApp’s dedication to enhancing communication and simplifying everyday tasks for its users.
