WhatsApp is working on a new feature that lets users add links to their profiles.
This will allow them to connect their WhatsApp account with other social media platforms, writes Ziare.
Until now, this feature was only available to WhatsApp Business accounts with several restrictions.
In the first phase of testing, users can add links to their Instagram profile. However, WhatsApp plans to expand this feature to include other Meta platforms, such as Facebook and Threads.
The goal is to make it easier for users to connect with their contacts on different social media platforms.
To ensure the feature is used properly, Meta might introduce an account verification process.
This would help stop fake links from being added to profiles. It is also possible that WhatsApp will limit the links to approved social media platforms only.
This would stop users from adding links to other websites or sources.
The good news is that adding links will be completely optional. Users will still have control over their privacy.
WhatsApp will offer settings that let users choose who can see the links on their profiles.
This feature is still in the testing phase, and there is no set date for when it will be available globally.
For now, users who are part of the test group can try out this new feature and see how it works.
It could change how people use WhatsApp, making it easier for them to connect across platforms.
WhatsApp is always looking for ways to make its app more useful and personalized, and this new feature could be a big step in that direction.
