WHATSAPP has ushered in a set of new features – which are currently exclusive for Android users.
Apple iPhone owners will unfortunately have to wait for a future update to access most of these fresh tricks.

Document caption: Users can now add captions when sending documents.
Longer group info: Users can add lengthier (and funnier) descriptions of their group chats.
Share up to 100 media: Users can send up to 100 photos and videos at a time – much more than the previous 30-strong limit.
This feature is a must-have for holiday goers and party-havers.
Avatars: Perhaps the most exciting new feature is the introduction of personalised avatars.
Users can create an avatar to use as a sticker or profile picture – similar to those on Snapchat and Apple.
Although, WhatsApp originally introduced this feature in a previous update.
But the Meta-owned social messaging company has noticed such little traction with the avatar feature that it has reiterated its existence in the official ‘changelog’ of the latest update.

If users don’t yet have these features, they are advised to wait for the next update.
