More text formatting features, such as bullets and quotes, are added to WhatsApp

The most widely used instant messaging program in the world, WhatsApp, is adding new features every month. The company, owned by Meta (Facebook), is testing several new features each week, and it appears that users of the messaging app on iOS and Android will soon have additional options for text formatting.

Many new text formatting options for WhatsApp are being tested in beta

The beta versions of Android and iOS have introduced new choices for text layout. It is now possible to arrange text in code blocks, bulleted lists, numbered lists, and quotation blocks in addition to bold, italic, strikethrough, and underlining. The people at WABetaInfo, who frequently find new and forthcoming features that WhatsApp is working on, uncovered these additions. You can utilize the text formatting window that appears when you choose text, or you can use a single inverted comma. It is useful for sending codes, which would otherwise have strange formatting.

You can use quote blocks to draw attention to a particular section of a message. You can select it by typing > followed by your response. Bulleted lists can be made using asterisks or dashes, whereas numbered lists can be launched using digits. Version 2.24.2.9 of WhatsApp for Android and version 23.21.1.75 of WhatsApp for iOS both currently have these functionalities available. They may soon be made available to everyone in the beta testing phase for the coming week.

When text formatting was first added to WhatsApp in 2017, it was really simple. The instant messaging program has added several features throughout time, such as voice chats, disappearing messages, stickers, message editing, high-quality image and video sharing, message replies, and message reactions. Additionally, WhatsApp has made it simpler to move data between iOS and Android devices. It also made it possible to use different accounts on the same device and the same account on multiple devices.
