WhatsApp released a new update over the weekend which includes some nifty features such as rich link previews, ability to peek and pop chats using 3D Touch on iPhone 6sand iPhone 6s Plus, and redesigned settings screen.
Here’s what’s new in the latest WhatsApp update:
• Links that you share or receive will now include a rich preview. When sending a link, you have the option to not include a rich preview.
• Additional 3D Touch features: You can now quickly Peek and Pop chats.
• Redesigned Settings tab.
• You can now view all your starred messages across all your chats in Settings — Starred Messages.
The ability to peek and pop chats using 3D Touch on iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus is quite a nifty, as it allows you to check messages without marking them as read. When you peek into a message, you can swipe up to Mark it as Unread, Archive it, Mute or Unmute the Conversation, delete chat or exit the conversation if it is a group conversation.
You will also be able to send a rich preview of the link, which includes the title and featured image when you paste the URL in the text field. If you don’t want to include the preview then you can dismiss it by tapping on the close button. The update also includes a redesigned Settings screen.
If the update hasn’t been installed on your device then you can get it using the direct download link.
