chat window

WhatsApp is developing a feature that will introduce notification bubbles on Android devices, enhancing user experience by allowing easier access to conversations without fully launching the app. The notification bubbles will function as floating icons, appearing when a new message arrives and showcasing the contact or group’s profile picture alongside the WhatsApp logo. Users can tap the bubble to access a compact chat window for reading and responding to messages instantly. This feature will be compatible with devices running Android 10 and above, with optimal performance on Android 11 and newer versions, and users will have the option to disable it. Additionally, WhatsApp plans to redesign its top app bar, replacing the app name with the official logo. The rollout of these features will first go to select beta testers before wider availability.
