News 18  

Facebook-owned messaging platform WhatsApp appears to be working on a new feature that will alert users about upcoming updates via in-app banners. According to a screenshot shared by WABetaInfo, users will need to “accept the new terms to continue using WhatsApp” or they can “always delete” their account. Similarly, a company spokesperson has confirmed to UK-based publication The Independent that all users “must agree” to the new terms by February 8, 2021, if they want to continue using the messaging platform. Meanwhile, WhatsApp recently announced a new feature that will allow users to put different custom wallpapers on each chat.
