WhatsApp is working on thinking mode for Meta AI
WhatsApp is working to support the new thinking mode for Meta AI. It is built for deeper reasoning. When this mode is enabled, Meta AI takes more time to process the request so it can analyze context, break down complex problems, and produce more accurate or structured answers. Note that users can currently interact with Meta AI using the fast mode, which is particularly designed for speed, providing quick responses to simple questions and prompts. In the future, users will be able to choose which mode best suits their needs depending on whether they prioritize speed or deeper reasoning.

WhatsApp is working on an optional subscription plan with premium features
With the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.26.4.8 update, we announced that WhatsApp plans to provide access to a new subscription plan through a waitlist. The plan will include some premium features, such as exclusive stickers, app themes, the ability to pin more than 3 chats, app icon customization, and a dedicated set of new chat ringtones. This is just the first set of features, and more may be added over time as WhatsApp collects feedback. However, while this subscription plan remains under development, some features and details may be revised before the official release. Additionally, this premium subscription will be optional. This means that users won't be forced to subscribe unless they want an enhanced experience according to their preferences.
