WhatsApp New Feature Update: Meta-Owned Platform Developing AI-Powered Chat Wallpapers
WhatsApp regularly updates its messaging services on the web and mobile app, offering better features to its users. The Meta-owned platform provides new features to enhance the experience of WhatsApp users.
According to a latest update, WhatsApp is working on a new beta feature for iOS users called "AI-powered chat wallpapers". Since it is under development, it has yet to be rolled out to developers (testers) via the TestFlight beta programme.
Customisable Chat Wallpapers with Meta AI
The new WhatsApp feature will be introduced in the iOS 25.15.10.70 version, allowing users to use Meta AI to generate wallpapers for the chat background. WhatsApp's AI-powered chat wallpaper feature will offer a customisable experience to users via the platform. Users will have to write a prompt and ask Meta AI to generate a chat wallpaper as per their preference, and set it for the conversations in chats.
According to WABetaInfo, Meta AI's generative capabilities will help users create unique backgrounds based on their imagination by writing a text prompt. Users could set it for all the users at once or choose different wallpapers for different chats to get a personalised experience.
Future Rollout and Integration with Meta AI
After beta testing, WhatsApp will roll out the same feature for all the iOS users in the future. Meta AI integration in WhatsApp has allowed many users to get direct access to the artificial intelligence services without separately downloading an app and starting a conversation. Meta AI offers text responses, generates images, and has strong, reasonable capabilities.
WABetaInfo said that Meta AI would produce many wallpaper variations based on the WhatsApp users' change in the text prompt. Afterwards, they can select a suitable wallpaper for all the chats. Further, they can adjust their theme, components, and elements to suit the wallpaper for better visual results.
