Everything You Need To Know About WhatsApp’s New Large Stickers For Windows
WhatsApp, which is owned by Meta, is preparing to launch a new feature on its Windows native desktop application. The latest WhatsApp beta versions can be installed from the Microsoft Store to enable users to access large stickers on the desktop version.
According to a report by WhatsApp tracker WABetaInfo, these stickers are significantly larger and only available to a select group. If you want to know if you belong to this selection, post a sticker in any conversation.
If it is not available in your WhatsApp account, you have to wait for the upcoming update. It’s important to note that this is not a new option that needs to be enabled separately, as labels are always sent in their larger format by default, the report states.
Stickers tend to provide a stronger visual impact in conversations than emojis, especially since it is possible to share a personalized version that may better reflect a particular situation.
According to the report, users can capture the attention of other participants in the conversation more effectively with larger stickers. However, this update is only available in the beta version of WhatsApp for Windows.
This means that when a large sticker is sent from the desktop native app, it will not appear the same size in the mobile app. Large stickers are available to some beta testers who install the latest WhatsApp beta for Windows update from the Microsoft Store.
If you don’t see the update in the Microsoft Store, note that it will gradually roll out to more users over the next few days.
At the same time, WhatsApp also releases a modified interface for the Communities tab/ Previously, the community icon appeared with rounded edges to make it easy to distinguish from other conversations.
However, with new icons for communities and groups linked to them, the platform improves the ability to distinguish them from other types of conversations.
