Popular messaging app 'WhatsApp' gets updated
with iOS 7 inspired design, brings new features like broadcast lists,
improved share location and much more.
Whatsapp released a new version of its app with a major facelift and some new
features. The popular third-party messaging app is one of the most used
cross-platform instant messengers on iOS, Android, BlackBerry, and
Windows Phone. The latest iOS update brings the much anticipated iOS
7-inspired visual refresh to the app. The icon is less glossy and
flatter, and the app internals are blue, grey, and white and flat all
over.
But WhatsApp also received a number of new features with the latest
release as well. The app now features "broadcast lists" which allows
user to send messages to groups of people, be they classmates, a group
of friends, or work colleagues. The new WhatsApp also includes a number
of new location sharing features, including support for 3D maps and the
ability to hide places. Check out the full release notes below.
