It doesn't stop there, the application that was acquired by Facebook in 2014 is reportedly going to launch its newest feature again.
According to rumors, WhatsApp will make its instant messaging platform function similar to Apple's iMessage application. The similarity is that users can flexibly use the application across all devices without being connected to the main device.
This means that one WhatsApp account can be used on several devices, both smartphones and different desktops at the same time. It is known, so far WhatsApp users can indeed connect on two devices via WhatsApp Web, but that will no longer be the case.
That way, users can activate one WhatsApp account on several different devices such as laptops, cellphones and desktops because they don't need to reconnect to the cellphone every time they switch devices. However, it is not certain when this new feature will appear.
Others, Boomerang features like Instagram will also be embedded with WhatsApp in the application. This feature will allow users to easily create looping videos with a duration of seven seconds. This particular feature is actually in a development stage and will be available to iPhone users first, according to the Mobile App Daily report.
