WhatsApp beta update for iOS brings customizable chat bubble colors
WhatsApp has rolled out a new firmware for iOS beta users. The key feature in development within this update, is a theme option that enables users to alter the color of their chat bubbles. This customization feature was seen in the latest WhatsApp beta for iOS 24.10.10.71 update from the TestFlight app, promising more personalization for users in the future.
Customizable chat bubble colors enhance user experience
This new feature follows a previous announcement about a theme option, that allows users to select the main color of the app. The chat bubble color customization will provide users with greater flexibility and personalization in their messaging experience. A screenshot attached to the source article demonstrates this facility, showing a blue hue, although it's not official and is part of testing.
WhatsApp expanding color options beyond traditional green
WhatsApp is developing a way to support chat bubbles in a wider variety of colors beyond the traditional green. Users shall be able to select from a predefined set of shades for their chat bubbles, similar to the previous theme facility that allowed them to choose the primary color of the app. This limitation ensures that users won't pick colors that could compromise message readability, maintaining necessary color accessibility.
