WhatsApp will soon allow you to choose from five conversation WhatsApp Themes, which modify the color of chat bubbles on the messaging app.
WhatsApp is developing a feature that will allow users to pick a default style and change the color of conversation bubbles on their smartphone. A feature tracker on a recent beta version of the iPhone app discovered the new personalization option under development, which might include a selection of color presets. The Meta-owned messaging app has altered its colour palette for iOS users, adding a green accent to features such as buttons and notification counts.
WhatsApp Default chat theme feature discovered
WABetaInfo, a feature tracker, discovered a new Default chat theme option in the newest WhatsApp beta for iOS 24.11.10.70, which is presently being tested by users through Apple’s TestFlight program. This implies that the feature cannot be activated right now, but it will be accessible for beta testers to check out later.
How does WhatsApp’s default chat theme feature work?
According to an image released by the feature tracker, WhatsApp is developing a new chat theme selector for the app, which will be available in the settings menu. Users can select from five themes: default green, blue, gray, red, and purple.
The leaked image also includes a fragment of text informing the user that selecting one of the chaat themes will change the color and wallpaper — along with the accompanying themed WhatsApp doodle backdrop — for chats on their phone.
Unlike Instagram, changing the chat theme only applies to the same phone. This implies that the Default chat theme setting will not change the theme in a chat for both users, unlike Instagram, which allows users to theme chats individually.
This new chat theme selector is likely to be made available to iOS beta testers in the near future before being released to the stable channel. Because most features are shared across WhatsApp for iOS and Android, we may anticipate this capability appearing on the Android version of the program in the future.
