WhatsApp beta includes big animated emoji

WhatsApp is getting large animated emojis

Meta Platforms-owned WhatsApp is developing a new feature to let users share animated emojis on the platform, WABetaInfo reports.

The feature was spotted in the latest WhatsApp Desktop beta, and it will make its way to all versions of the app at a later date.

An animated emoji will be sent by default if the animated version of that emoji is available, meaning users may not be able to turn off the animation.

How absolutely ****ing ****
