As you can see on this screenshot, the emoji layouts are changed and reflect the same layout of the emoji you send to conversations and groups. WhatsApp also uses the emoji bar, so you can quickly find the emoji by selecting its category.
Speaking of the earlier section, the available emoji have a 2D shape with basic emotions like a smiling face, and a funny face. Moreover, there were no separation options.
Now, these new drawing emojis are identical to the ones we use in the message section, they are all available. At the bottom, the split bar will also be provided with separately categorized smilies, animals, food, resources, and other symbols.

WhatsApp is rolling out a new beta update for Android, which brings the ability to create custom chat filters right from the chats list. This update is available with version 2.24.20.13 through the Google Play Beta Program.
The fresh feature makes it easier for users to manage their conversations. Now, a new button will appear in the chats list, which allows users to create custom lists quickly. Users can select specific contacts and group chats to generate filters that display only the conversations they want to see.
In addition, users will have a convenient option at the bottom of their chats to manage these lists. They’ll be able to add or remove people and groups or rename their filters with just a few taps. It makes the filtering feature more visible and user-friendly.
In earlier beta versions, users had to go into the settings to create lists, which many found complicated. The new update addresses this by providing a simple way to manage chats.

WhatsApp has rolled out a new stable update, which brings several useful features for managing communities and group chats. It is available for Android users with version 2.24.18.80 on the Google Play Store.
The fresh update adds the ability to transfer community ownership. Before, this was only available to those using the beta version of WhatsApp, but now it’s available to everyone.
Now, community owners can now easily hand over their admin rights to another admin. This can be done through the community settings, just select a new admin >> confirm the transfer, and the new owner will get a notification about their new role.
In addition, the update also brings an option to archive community group chats directly from the Chats tab. Previously, users could only do this from the Communities tab, but now they can achieve groups without switching tabs.
Not only this, the update also includes a feature that lets community admins hide certain group chats from general community members. This means admins can now keep specific discussions private, only visible to invited participants and other admins.
