WhatsApp For iOS Gets A Big Update; Swipe Actions, Photo Captions And More
With iOS 8 support popping up just before launch, it seems like those new iPhones are going to hit the shelves soon.
WhatsApp has finally added a ton of new features all thanks to the big new update v2.11.9 that has started popping up on iOS 7 and 8 devices worldwide. iOS certainly seems to be priority for WhatsApp as the company rolled out the update just a couple of hours away from the launch of the iPhone 6.
The app was clearly a mess for those who were on the beta version of iOS 8 and now thanks to the update, not only is the app finally stable, but also enhances some existing features while adding some new ones for those on iOS 7:
- You can now archive chats and groups from the inbox area with a swipe to the left (iOS 8 style) and even archive them all at once if you want to via settings
- Photos and videos can now be captioned although this feature works only on iOS devices and will show up separately on other devices
- Accessing the camera is now a single tap away
- You can now share all those slow motion videos from your iPhone 5s as well
- Video trimming is also now available for iOS
- Locations can now be shared precisely and you dont need to tag the nearest establishment anymore
- Moreover iOS now gets support for satellite and hybrid maps as well
Apart from the above there are new options for media auto-download, wallpapers and notifications tones as well.
