emojis are now animated and forget to give your phone

The application has developed all kinds of emojis and last year it even launched some, but related to avatars. Now, what WhatsApp wants is that the emojis that are usually used daily, such as the one with laughter or the heart, to come alive and the deployment of an excellent option for privacy would be approaching.

New emojis are also coming, which will expand the vast repertoire that the chat app now has. And this type of graphics has been become vital in any conversationSo it makes sense that the Meta-owned app wants to offer more variety and at the same time be more fun when sent in a chat.

The best thing about this update is that the emojis used daily will completely change, not only in sizebut they will be animated. This is how they appear in the beta version of WhatsApp for Android, precisely 2.24.15.15.

There are several technical points that are very important, namely that these animated emojis, designed using the Lottie library, will keep the same definition and quality as normal ones; and being just as lightweight and scalable so they display perfectly on any mobile. And of course, they don’t cause any loss of performance.

There is another aspect to consider: Not all emojis will be available with animation. WhatsApp has only updated a few of them, so only the ones that have their own version will be animated, the rest will appear as always.

WaBetaInfo shared a short video in which you can see laughing and heart emojis fully animated. It is not known what the others are, but WhatsApp plans to update the rest to include its animated version.

Create an alias on WhatsApp

This new feature is present in the beta version of WhatsApp for some users, according to WaBetaInfoand it remains to be deployed in the final version, as is the case with another of the new features that arrive in the desktop version of the beta: create an alias or username so you can give it out

Last year the first news arrived about this development that implies a big change when it comes to adding someone to WhatsApp, since this way we can forget to pass the phone. And better yet, unlike other apps like Discord, this username or alias will be unique to the user.

One of the developments, according to WaBetaInfowhich takes longer for the chat application, but with the aim that it does not have bugs and that the experience is perfect, since it will replace the phone and thus be closer to Instagram, which in this experience is perfect for passing the username to the contact.
