WhatsApp: WhatsApp is getting a big update, it will have a feeling like Instagram..

WhatsApp is soon going to release a major update that will include a new feature that will allow users to add music to their status updates. This update will make the platform even more interactive and visually appealing. According to The Verge report, the feature is inspired by early internet trends and features found on other Meta-owned platforms such as Instagram and will be rolled out globally in the coming weeks.

With this new feature, WhatsApp users will soon be able to include snippets of popular songs in their status updates, which will disappear after 24 hours. According to Meta, which is WhatsApp's parent company, millions of songs will be available in the platform's music library, allowing users to make their status even better with personalized music clips. The feature will be integrated into the existing status update interface, where users can already share text, photos, and videos.

What will the new update be like
When users tap to add a status, a music note icon will appear at the top of the screen, allowing them to add music to their posts. Users can choose a song of up to 15 seconds to accompany a photo or a song of up to 60 seconds for a video, adding more depth to their status updates. The feature is similar to Instagram's popular Stories music feature, allowing WhatsApp users to personalize their thoughts with music.

What's great about this new music feature is that users can choose a specific part of a song. It could be a chorus, a specific lyric, or a catchy sound bite - allowing them to join in on viral trends or add an extra emotional layer to their status updates.

WhatsApp has introduced a feature to add music to its status, which brings back nostalgic memories of the internet. The feature is reminiscent of old platforms like MySpace and AIM, where users used to express themselves by adding music to their profiles. By reviving this trend, WhatsApp wants to give users a new and familiar way to share their moments and express themselves.

As with all content on WhatsApp, status updates are end-to-end encrypted. This means that users can add songs to their status updates, but WhatsApp will not be able to see the specific content that is shared.
