WhatsApp is launching several new features to its status, allowing users to post disappearing pictures and other media.

The new features will enable you to react to people’s posts with an emoji, limit who can see your status, and post voice messages.

According to an announcement post, the status emoji reactions work similarly to how they do on Instagram.

Meanwhile, the new tool lets you change who can see your statuses, with the option to show it to everyone, hide it from certain contacts, or only show it to specific people.

According to Meta, the options you pick will be the default for the next status you post, but you’ll be able to change it without changing the visibility of past statuses.

Last month, WABetaInfo reported that WhatsApp is rolling out new updates for Mac designed for Apple silicon, with the new version becoming available for Mac beta publicly available.

Mac users can now download the new WhatsApp app on their devices via the company’s official website. The updated version for Mac allows the app to take advantage of all the features that the iOS version of the app offers.

Users can head to the WhatsApp website’s download section and look for the new WhatsApp app for Mac beta.
