The report has shared a screenshot showing that the feature to react to messages will be available via a future update. Besides this, you can also manage reaction notifications for both groups and individual chats. However, there is no word regarding when exactly we can expect this feature to be rolled out to users.

Other WhatsApp Features On Cards

Besides the reaction notifications feature, WhatsApp is also prepping to bring many other exciting features for its users. There will be an ‘Advertise on the Facebook’ option that will help users of WhatsApp Business. Furthermore, iOS users will be able to receive a better privacy option soon with the ‘My Contacts Except’ feature that will let users hide their last seen, profile photo and about info to select contacts.

The beta version of WhatsApp will let users create customised group icons using icons, emojis and a custom background. It is tipped to be rolled out to the Android beta version of the app 2.21.20.2.
