The new design, which has been the subject of debate among users who have already received the update, has been widely shared on platforms such as Reddit and other social networks. Among the most notable changes is the replacement of the blue tone with green in key buttons, such as starting a new chat or sending a message, although adjustments have also been made to the arrangement of elements and navigation within the application .
However, for those users who still prefer the blue hue, there is unfortunately no option to revert this change or select a different shade. WhatsApp has made it clear that this update will be implemented for all iOS users progressively in the coming weeks.
It is important to note that these design changes will not affect the current functions of the platform or add new ones for the moment, focusing only on modifying the colors. This strategy contrasts with the complete transformation experienced on Android, where buttons were rearranged, new tones and icons were introduced, and significant interface changes were implemented.
However, WhatsApp doesn’t stop there in its quest for personalization. Unlike its counterpart, Facebook Messenger, which has tools to modify the appearance of chats, WhatsApp has announced that it is working on a feature to change the color of the application. According to reports from WaBetaInfo, users will be able to choose from a selection of predefined colors, which will allow not only to modify the visual appearance of the application, but also to highlight key elements within the user interface.
One of the most interesting features of this feature in development is that the color change will be local, affecting only the appearance of the application on the user’s device, without interfering with the experience of other users with whom it communicates.
