WhatsApp is set to roll out new feature that will allow users to enhance their status updates with music to their photos and videos, just like Instagram.
The new feature is already available on the Android beta version (2.25.2.5), which is designed to make status updates more dynamic and interactive.
With the update, users will see a music icon appear in the status section.
Users just need to tap the icon, and would be able add favorite songs, artists, or trending tracks.
Once a song is selected, users can add a 15-second music clip to their photo-based statuses.
For video statuses, the music duration will automatically match the video’s length.
This feature is made possible through a collaboration between Meta and Universal Music Group, giving users access to a vast catalog of songs directly within WhatsApp.
After successfully testing the feature in beta on both Android and iOS, WhatsApp is expected to roll it out globally in the near future.
