WhatsApp, the popular messaging platform, has introduced a new feature that will make it easier for users to share their WhatsApp Status updates on Facebook Stories.
This optional feature will allow users to automatically share their Status on Facebook without having to do it manually each time.
According to WhatsApp, many of its users have been requesting an easier way to share their Status on Facebook. With this new feature, users can opt-in to automatically share their Status on Facebook, and they can also disable the feature at any time they want.
In a press note released by WhatsApp, the company said, “A lot of WhatsApp users love the existing option to post their Status to their Facebook Story. We’ve also gotten feedback that people want this process to be easier, so they don’t have to manually post their WhatsApp Status each time. We’re excited to introduce an optional feature that makes it easier for people to post their WhatsApp Status to their Facebook Story automatically if they want to do so.”
WhatsApp Status is a popular way for users to share updates with friends and contacts on the platform.
The Status disappears after 24 hours and can include photos, videos, GIFs, text, and more.
The platform has also introduced a privacy audience selector for Status, allowing users to choose who gets to view their Status.
“WhatsApp Status is built with privacy top of mind. Like your personal chats and calls, Status is protected by end-to-end encryption so you can share privately and securely. Earlier this year, we also introduced a privacy audience selector for Status, so you can choose who gets to view your Status,” the press note read.
The updates have already started rolling out to users globally and will be available to everyone in the coming weeks.
