WhatsApp Begins Testing Status Update Notifications on Android: Report
WhatsApp is said to be testing a new feature on its Android beta that notifies users when selected contacts post new status updates. Users can enable alerts directly from a contact’s status via the overflow menu and mute them anytime. Notifications show the contact’s name and a small preview for image or video statuses, allowing quick updates without opening the app. The feature prioritises important contacts and keeps alerts private.
