WhatsApp has released a new update that brings several features to improve chatting, calling, and overall communication. The most important feature is Missed Call Messages.
Now, if someone misses your call, you can instantly send a voice note or video note, allowing them to hear or see your message even without answering the call.
Meta AI image generation has also been upgraded in this update.
WhatsApp now uses advanced AI models like Flux and Midjourney, which let you animate your photos into short videos using simple text prompts.
Status updates also get new tools like interactive stickers, music lyrics, and Question/Poll options to make communication more fun.
A new Media tab is also coming to desktop for easier access to documents, links, and media files.
Top 5 New WhatsApp Features
Missed Call Messages
This is WhatsApp’s biggest new feature. It works as a modern replacement for old voicemail systems. When a call is missed, the caller can send a voice note or video note directly in chat.
This is extremely helpful for work calls, family updates, or emergencies. There is no need to deal with old voicemail menus—everything happens in the chat. You can also quickly send notes already recorded on your phone.
Major Upgrade in Meta AI Image Generation
Meta AI has become more powerful with the addition of Flux and Midjourney models.
Now you can create high-quality AI images just by typing prompts, such as holiday greetings or fun chat graphics.
Another big improvement is image animation. You can turn any photo into a short animated video with a simple command, and Meta AI will bring the picture to life.
Animate Photos into Short Videos
This feature is designed for fun chats and quick social communication.
You select a photo, and AI converts it into an animation that looks like it is moving in real life.
This uses Meta AI’s new abilities to make your memories more expressive.
Animated photos can be used for birthday wishes, party moments, or fun messages—making chats more engaging and lively.
New Media Tab on Desktop
WhatsApp’s desktop version now includes a Media Tab.
It organizes all your documents, links, and media files in one place.
This reduces the time spent searching through chats and helps you find important files quickly.
New Status Stickers and Channel Interactions
WhatsApp Status now supports interactive stickers, music lyrics, and Question/Poll options.
These tools help users get responses and feedback from followers.
They are especially useful for marketing, content creators, and community engagement.
