With time passing, our WhatsApp messages become an online scrapbook where all the information required about the family members and business reports are located as well as the funny videos and photos that we store in our hearts. These discussions can become too big and hence it may be hard to control.
WhatsApp is rolling out a colossal update that will allow individuals to be organized, keep their work and personal life apart, and get maximum out of every communication. Here is the list of all the new features  that will be added to your favorite messaging application.
1. Free Up Space While Keeping What Matters
Your phone storage may easily be cluttered as your conversations are full of media. The new update of WhatsApp enables users to search and delete huge files directly in any chat.
Nor do you have to wipe out a conversation in its entirety; you can just tap the name of the chat, choose Manage Storage and delete what you no longer require. Also, in clearing a chat, you can now choose to delete the media files only and your invaluable text history is left untouched.
2. Seamless Cross-Platform Chat Transfer
Switching a smartphone operating system should not imply that you have to lose your chat history. WhatsApp has also revised the chat transfer functionality, and it has now been more than ever to transfer the conversation, photos, and videos between iOS and Android. All it takes you is a few taps and you can safely transfer your data between platforms without use of any complicated third-party software.
3. Dual Accounts Now on iOS
This has been a long-time favorite of Android users and now it is officially available to iPhones users: Two Whatsapp accounts on one phone. iOS users are now allowed to access two accounts at the same time as they no longer have to carry two phones to keep work and personal life apart. Your active profile picture will be well discovered in the bottom navigation tab to enable you to never use the wrong number in sending a message.

4. Smart Sticker Suggestions
Stickers can be used to send larger and more dramatic feelings. WhatsApp will now also suggest relevant stickers when typing emojis in order to make them more accessible. By just one tap, you can replace any conventional emoji with a dynamic sticker, which will intimate the exact mood that you are in.
5. Meta AI Photo Touch-Ups
Artificial Intelligence is invading your media sharing. Meta AI now allows its users to use the tool to edit photographs right inside the chat box and send them. Meta AI works in real-time, whether you need to eliminate a distracting object in the background or replace it with a completely new background or use a fun artistic style.
6. Context-Aware AI Writing Help
Have nothing to say to a lengthy text? The new AI Writing Help will be able to compose the proposed answers depending on the situation you are conversing in. This will not only assist in making your message exactly right, but also in making your chats fully confidential and safe.
Can I delete photos from a WhatsApp chat without deleting the text?
Yes! With the new update, you can go to ‘Manage Storage’ within a specific chat or choose to clear only the media files while keeping your text history intact.
Can I use two WhatsApp accounts on my iPhone now?
Yes, the latest update allows iOS users to log into two WhatsApp accounts simultaneously on the same device, a feature that was previously only available on Android.
How does the new iOS to Android chat transfer work?
WhatsApp now natively supports cross-platform transfers. You can securely move your complete chat history, including photos and videos, from an iPhone to an Android device using the in-app transfer tool.
What can Meta AI do with my photos on WhatsApp?
Before sending a photo, you can use Meta AI to edit it directly in the chat. You can remove unwanted objects, change the background, or apply artistic styles.
