All these apps need to calm DOWN.
Between Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram all borrowing features from each other, we can barely keep up.
Nowadays we have Snapchat stories, Instagram stories and more… And it doesn’t seem to be slowing down.
For our favourite messaging app Whatsapp, it looks like things are going to take a big change as now you can personalise photos before sending to your friends, much like Snapchat, who is known mainly for it’s photo editing feature.
In a blog post, Whatsapp announced the news today
“Today we’re introducing new ways to customize and enhance the photos and videos you share with friends and family around the world. With WhatsApp’s new camera features, you can now write or draw on photos and videos, as well as add emoji to express yourself.
When you capture a new photo or video or share one that’s already on your phone, you’ll automatically see the new editing tools. Whether you’re drawing a big red heart to show how much you miss someone or adding your favorite emoji – sometimes a picture really is worth a thousand words. Try adding text too, and change the color and font style.
The WhatsApp camera feature now supports the front-facing flash so you can take the perfect selfie. In low light and at night, this will brighten up your screen and improve the quality of your photo. We’ve also added a convenient zooming feature for recording videos – just slide your finger up and down to zoom in and out. And to quickly switch between front and rear facing cameras, double tap on the screen.
These new camera features will be rolling out on Android phones starting today and on iPhone soon. We hope you enjoy these new features when you share your next photo or video.”
When will all this feature borrowing end huh?
