According to the latest WABetaInfo reports, the latest beta (v2.23.7.17) for WhatsApp includes a new text editor experience accessible when adding a text overlay on an image sent to a contact, or as a status update. Let me tell you that the messaging app already had the capability, but the latest update has included together several new features and text editing options.
Instead of just a set of a few font faces, WhatsApp includes at least 7 different options now including:
- Calistoga
- Courier Prime
- Damion
- Exo 2
- Morning Breeze
It is quite easy to pick from all the available options in a strip just above your keyboard now. It is no doubt a much easier way to change fonts as compared to the current implementation which needs to tap a single button repeatedly to switch between fonts. Some of the available font faces are quite similar to the options available on Instagram.
The latest beta is now also allowing you to change the text background color to aid text visibility in high-contrast situations. This can be used additionally for artistic effects, for instance, when you want to differentiate some text from the rest. WhatsApp also boasts word processor-like text alignment buttons in this latest beta version which allows you to align the text to the left, right, or center.
Reports claim that the new WhatsApp text editor experience seems to be rolling out to beta testers in phases. It will take some time before you see it on your Android device. However, this new WhatsApp feature in the latest beta claims that we may see it transition to the stable version of the app sooner than later.
