these are the 4 new features

WhatsApp is currently rolling out a new text editor to some beta testers. This makes the chat app more like Instagram in terms of text editing.

New text editor options in WhatsApp

In the latest WhatsApp Beta for Android (2.23.7.17), WABetaInfo discovered an improved text editor. Some WhatsApp Beta users can already use the editor.

The screenshot below shows what’s new in the text editor. Once the feature is enabled for your WhatsApp account, you will no longer see a handful of fonts. WhatsApp now includes at least seven different options, including Calistoga, Courier Prime, Damion, Exo 2, and Morning Breeze. WhatsApp also makes it easier to quickly select the desired font. You choose them from a strip just above the keyboard.

At the top you will now also see an option with text alignment. You can align the text to the left, center or right. This gives you more options when it comes to formatting text in images, videos, and GIFs. Furthermore, there is the possibility to change the background color of the text.

All this is now available to some beta testers who have the latest beta version of WhatsApp for Android. The enhanced text editor is also available for some businesses on WhatsApp Business. The feature will roll out to even more people in the coming weeks, so it’s only a matter of time.
