New animated emojis on WhatsApp

The news doesn’t come as a huge surprise, given that WhatsApp has been working on animated emojis for some time. Smileys are an old public request and they are available for some time on the rival TelegramFor example.

A video released by WABetaInfo shows a taste of the news. As this is a screenshot, it is good to keep in mind that the quality of the images will not be the same as the animations running within the mobile’s messaging application, where they will probably be smoother and more fluid.

In this probable first wave, WhatsApp should provide animated faces based on the most used emojis by users. Are they:

  • Tears of joy;
  • crying loudly;
  • Cry;
  • Mouth open;
  • Red heart;
  • Fire.

Check out the demo below:

When it arrives?

Since this is a feature still under development, the platform has not yet confirmed a launch date for the novelty in the stable version of WhatsApp, but it is almost certain that animated emojis will arrive soon in an update for WhatsApp Beta on mobile and PC.

It is worth mentioning that WhatsApp prepares more news for the public, such as a new layout in message menu on android it’s a shortcut to react with emojis in windows.
