One of the key features in the latest update is the ability to transform images into STICKERS. The reports suggest that WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.6.8 is unveiling settings that allow users to control who can use their avatars in stickers, providing a new level of privacy and security.

Additionally, the latest update includes the addition of Unicode 15.1 emojis to the app's keyboard, which is expected to improve the overall user experience.

There are also rumours that Meta is exploring the option of integrating messages from third-party instant messaging services into WhatsApp, which could lead to increased interoperability. However, it is unclear how far Meta will pursue interoperability and which features will make it to the official app.

In response to Europe's Digital Markets Act (DMA) regulations, WhatsApp is reportedly developing a chat interoperability feature that could enable users to send messages to third-party applications like Signal or Telegram.

Overall, these updates are expected to provide users with a better messaging experience and increased privacy and security, while also complying with regulatory requirements.
