Popular instant messaging platform WhatsApp is rolling out new features, including message reactions, improved file sharing and increased limit for groups.
Emoji reactions are now available on the latest version of the app. Users can react to messages with emojis.
“Reactions are fun and fast, and they reduce overload in groups too. We’ll continue improving them by adding an even broader range of expressions in the future,” WhatsApp said in a blog post.
Separately, users can now send files of up to 2GB in size at a time within the platform, protected by end-to-end encryption. This is an increase from the previous limit of 100MB, The Hindu reported.
