WhatsApp consolidates its leading position in the market of instant messaging applications for iPhone and Android. Through a recent update, the tech giant launched two revolutionary features, destined to transform the way users share and consume video content.
WhatsApp has rolled out a major update that brings users the ability to fast forward videos by simply double-tapping their edges. This exciting feature for iPhone and Android allows for effortless video navigation, giving you the ability to skip less relevant parts of a clip and focus on the essential moments.
WhatsApp initially rolled out the feature to a select group of users, but now it's now widely available, marking an important step in the evolution of the video experience in the app for iPhone and Android. In parallel, WhatsApp introduces a long-awaited feature to record and instantly send video messages directly in chats.
Android and iPhone users can now record video messages with a simple long press on the camera button next to the text field, making sharing important moments with friends and family faster and more intuitive than ever. This functionality, although available in previous updates in a limited form, now gets a new lease of life, facilitating direct and instant video communication.
