Ever since we entered 2022, WhatsApp is making headlines every now and then for its upcoming features. From a cool new Communities feature to message reactions, the messaging giant has a lot of things cooking behind the scenes. The latest feature test to join the list is a redesigned media picker, which might launch for Android users soon.
A new report by WABetaInfo reveals that WhatsApp has started rolling out a new Android beta update, version 2.22.4.4, which includes a new media picker. This is supposed to help you easily choose media and send it to others.
The new media picker will also have the option to select multiple videos and images. However, one thing noteworthy is that you will only be able to find this new media picker when selecting media clicked via WhatsApp’s in-app camera. We hope to see this feature while sending media in a chat in its stable form.
In addition, WhatsApp is testing another feature in beta on Android, which will let group admins delete messages from anyone on the group. This feature will show a “This was deleted by an admin” message when a message is deleted, much like how it appears when a message is deleted generally.
If you are a group admin, you will be able to delete any message for everyone in your groups, in a future update of WhatsApp beta for Android.A good moderation, finally. #WhatsApp pic.twitter.com/Gxw1AANg7M— WABetaInfo (@WABetaInfo) January 26, 2022
