Improvements in audio playback
It comes much talking about the integration of Apple Music and other similar services on WhatsApp. Claimed by some and denied by others, what if it seems is that is has improved the stability of the application to play audio files.
What’s new for GIFs
It has been one of the recently added to WhatsApp, at least in its trial version, the possibility of sending these animated images now, if they are not on the server because we have not downloaded it ourselves, we have to re-upload it to forward it.
On the other hand, and this will help us to save space on the mobile, WhatsApp us alert if we have already downloaded an image so that we do not duplicate it.
What’s new in mentions
That came the ability to quote texts or files sent by a user recently but now we can do something similar to what is on Twitter. I.e., can send a photo, a video or a GIF and draw the attention of other contact mentioning them, something very useful in the case of very large groups.
