Lately the developers of Meta are focusing their efforts on the introduction of new elements capable not only of perfecting and making the use of WhatsAppbut also to increase the level of consistency between the versions for Android and iOS. In this sense, the graphic novelties relating to the attachment screen designed for Android can be interpreted, which will aesthetically approach the solutions already in use on Apple devices, and the implementation of multi-account support for iOS, already in use in the systems for systems Mobile operating developed by Google.
Graphic news for Android
The restyling Dedicated to Android devices has already been made available to users with the stable version 2.25.1.75 of WhatsApp. By clicking on the icon with the staple in the messages bar, i.e. that relating to the attachments, it is possible to appreciate this novelty: the icons that indicate documents, gallery, position and contacts, previously circular in shape, have a new graphic design, resulting now square but with rounded corners. This solution profoundly changes the appearance of the app, also because, in addition to the different form, the icons compared to the recent past are more colorful and detailed, both in clear and dark mode: the symbols chosen by the developers make navigation in the menu much more intuitive and aesthetically pleasant attachments.
It is, however, a novelty only as regards the version of the app for Android, since this restyling had already been introduced for the first time on iOS in 2023, to then be adopted on a permanent plan. These changes are available in the versions 2.25.1.75 And 2.25.1.76 of WhatsApp distributed globally through the Google Play Store, and many users have already been able to benefit from it, such as those of India and Canada.
Multi account for iOS
We will have to wait a little longer for the multi account Instead, dedicated to iOS systems, an option already available for users who use the Android version of the app from 2023: the functionality allows you to be able to use two different profiles on the same smartphone, avoiding having to rely on the business version of WhatsApp or to use the method of cloned app.
Unlike the previously illustrated novelty, the Multi Account option is still being developed: the experts of Wabetainfo they reported that they had spotted it within the version Beta 25.2.10.70 For iOS available through testfligt. The tests are still in progress, and it will also be necessary to wait to have the novelty available in the public beta version.
However, it is not difficult to hypothesize that, given the correct functioning of the option, the multi account will have the same characteristics as the Android version. The user will be able to pass easily from one profile to another on the same smartphone, which happens frequently especially to those who use an account other than the personal one for work purposes.
