The rumored Communities section has also been detailed and message reactions’ launch also seems to be closer. Here’s a look at the upcoming WhatsApp features.
As per the latest beta version (2.22.4.10) of WhatsApp for Android (courtesy WABetaInfo), users will soon get the ability to delete send messages even after 2 days.
