WhatsApp To Update User Interface For Android Devices: All You Need To Know – News18

The Meta-owned standard immediate messaging utility WhatsApp is reportedly rolling out rounded alerts that observe the newest Material Design 3 pointers. Material Design 3 is Google’s newest model of its open-source design system, which promotes the very best practices of consumer interface design.

“We introduced that WhatsApp was releasing a brand new tweaked interface by introducing redesigned switches and floating motion buttons. With the replace, these interface components lastly observe Material Design 3 pointers, enhancing the consumer expertise,” WABetaInfo reported,

The report revealed that this is part of their project to redesign the app by aligning with the Material Design 3 rules. As per the screenshot shared by the WABetaInfo, beta users can clearly see that these dialogs are distinct from each other. In the previous update, WhatsApp had a standard interface for the alert.

With the latest update of WhatsApp beta, these alerts now have highly rounded edges that definitely align with the Material Design 3 guidelines. This design decision not only gives the user interface a new and modern appearance but also improves the overall user experience by making the different parts of the app look consistent with Material Design 3, WABetaInfo said.

Rounded alerts are available to some lucky beta testers that install the latest WhatsApp beta for Android update from the Google Play Store, and they are rolling out to even more people over the coming weeks.

Meanwhile, WhatsApp is adding a new button to the drawing editor that will allow users to send high-quality videos. The video resolution will be kept, but some compression will still be applied. Ergo, while the videos will not be shared in their original quality, the quality will still be better than videos shared in the standard way on the platform. WhatsApp will still default to using the “standard quality” setting, and customers should select the “top quality” option each time they want to share a video.
