WhatsApp Now Uses Capital letters O and T in ‘Online’ and ‘Typing’

One of the most popular messaging apps in the world right now is WhatsApp. Regularly, its developers add new features or modify existing ones to make it more interesting. A colorless top bar was just introduced to WhatsApp in beta, while the app’s swipeable navigation bar was also made available to everyone. It appears that another design change is now taking effect.

Most WhatsApp users are aware that the application has indicators that show the other person if they are online or typing. These two typing signs are now displayed as Online and Typing, which has been seen by many WhatsApp users, me included, during the previous several days.

It was Rebecca Franks, a Senior Android Developer Relations Engineer at Google, who used X/Twitter to make this world-famous. Looking at the responses quickly gives the impression that many users are not happy about it. Remember that WhatsApp hasn’t made this change official just yet.

However, at present, not all devices provide these capitalized indicators. WhatsApp on my Android phone uses lowercase indicators, and WhatsApp on my iPhone uses capital letters for both typing and online. We expect its wide release within the next several weeks, given that multiple users have reported this change, barring a change of heart on WhatsApp’s side in response to the negative feedback.

You can expect a wide release of a new feature from WhatsApp in the coming weeks, barring any reversal in decision-making prompted by negative feedback. Soon, WhatsApp will let users attach notes to their connections. The team over at WABetaInfo made this discovery when testing out Android’s WhatsApp beta version 2.24.9.12. Below the Audio, Video, and Search options on the chat details screen, users can find a text box that allows them to write notes about a contact.

The word “customer” suggests a commercial purpose, although regular users might easily use this feature to make a few notes on someone. The only person who can see these notes is the one who made them. You should know that this notes work is in its early stages and not all beta testers have access to it yet, according to WABetaInfo.
