WhatsApp has finally addressed the long-standing issue of its outdated user interface on Android devices. The popular instant messaging platform has added a plethora of features since its acquisition by Meta in 2014, but the UI has remained unchanged until now.
According to reports from Wabetainfo.com, WhatsApp is currently beta testing a new design for Android users that includes a bottom navigation bar, similar to what is available on iOS. The new design is likely to make navigation within the app a lot easier for Android users.
