This is the new WhatsApp 2.0 that will amaze everyone The future of messaging on your mobile phone

It seems that WhatsApp, the legendary app we use daily to send messages and make calls, is about to change forever. The reason is simple. The company is working on new features to make your conversations more enjoyable and useful than ever before.

Just imagine being able to add special effects to your video calls or having a smart assistant to help you reply to messages. Well, all of this is about to reach your mobile phone.

One of the most important new features is augmented reality (AR) effects for video calls. According to the latest reports, WhatsApp is testing filters and backgrounds that you can use while talking to your friends or family. You can add virtual paper scraps, stars, or even change the background of your room to whatever you want, all without leaving the app.

But it doesn't stop there because WhatsApp is also betting heavily on artificial intelligence. Soon, the app will be able to suggest smart replies based on the conversation's context. It can also detect your mood and offer suggestions.

Without going further, you already know that ChatGPT has just reached a new level with its integration into WhatsApp. Since its arrival at the end of 2024, the chatbot could only communicate via text messages. Now things have changed: you can send images, any kind of memes or stickers, and voice notes.

On the other hand, the company is working on integrating the app with the Internet of Things. This means that in the not-so-distant future, you will be able to control smart devices in your home directly through WhatsApp. Want to turn on the air conditioner before getting home? A simple WhatsApp message will do the trick.

For businesses, they also have big plans and are developing AI robots in WhatsApp that will be able to provide customer service 24/7. Naturally, all these new features will come with the end-to-end encryption you already know, so all your conversations, even with these new additions, will remain private and secure.

One of the new features people are eagerly waiting for is the special effects and filters for WhatsApp’s camera. According to the latest leaks, the iOS beta version of WhatsApp already includes these features. Users will be able to apply AR effects, change backgrounds, and use filters directly from the camera interface.

Finally, it is rumored that the app could integrate virtual reality features in the future, allowing immersive virtual meetings directly from the app.

Additionally, WhatsApp is working on improving the Meta AI assistant. Soon, you’ll be able to interact with this assistant using your voice, where, for example, you can ask WhatsApp to summarize the day's news or help you plan your next trip.

What makes this AI special is that it won’t require downloading a specific app to use it, as it will be integrated into Meta services, such as Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp, and even devices like Ray-Ban Meta and Meta Quest 3.

Integration with other apps and services, similar to the Chinese app WeChat, is also on the horizon. WhatsApp could become the "control center" for everything you need, from ordering food to booking a taxi or buying movie tickets.
