Three new features have been added to the web version of WhatsApp. The company has announced that WhatsApp users can now make modifications to an image, before sending it, on the web version, preview links and get sticker ideas.

WhatsApp said in a statement, “We know feeling comfortable expressing yourself is an important part of why people use WhatsApp to keep in contact with their friends and family. Whether that’s sending voice messages or photos and videos, sharing a Status post, or a link to something you’ve seen online. Over the past few months we’ve made a few changes to WhatsApp to answer some of your feature requests and to keep giving you the best experience.”

WhatsApp has now added a media editor to the web version of the platform as well. If you wanted to alter an image, you could only do it on the app’s mobile version until now. WhatsApp is now changing this, and the media editor is now available on the web version. As a result, one can now edit photographs on their computer as well.

WhatsApp is now recommending stickers based on your conversations. As you type, you’ll get a suggestion for the perfect sticker. WhatsApp has made it easier for users to locate stickers in the middle of conversations that don’t interrupt the flow of the conversation. You might sometimes waste a lot of time looking for the ideal sticker. As you type, WhatsApp’s contextual sticker will propose stickers, allowing you to select the perfect sticker at the right time to accurately express yourself.

The way individuals may see previews of links on WhatsApp has also been improved. When sending a link via WhatsApp online, users will now be able to see a full preview of the link. People who get the link will have a lot more information about what was delivered and what they are about to see or read on the messaging app’s web version.
