WhatsApp is expected to make a couple of changes to the app in the near future. Firstly, it might tweak the camera UI of the app and secondly, it is expected to soon allow group admins to delete messages for everyone on the group. This feature is an extension of the “Delete for everyone” feature that allows the sender to delete their messages on the group. A report by WABetaInfo reveals that these features were spotted on WhatsApp for Android beta 2.22.1.2.
According to a report by WABetaInfo, the “Delete for everyone” feature will let the group admins remove messages from the group, irrespective of who sent that text. The report even shared a screenshot of this functionality that revealed that all group members will see the “This was removed by an admin” message in the chat if the text is deleted by the group admin.
The report reveals that the new camera UI is not yet available for the beta testers. The redesigned camera UI includes a Flash shortcut that is placed at the top right corner. A circular shade near the Switch Camera button has also been spotted. In the place of the flash shortcut, you will now get access to your recent photos.
