WhatsApp now lets you assign individual wallpapers to different chats

Android Apps

WhatsApp's latest update is all about personalization. After updating to the latest version of the app on Android and iOS, you can assign different wallpapers to your chats with all of your contacts. It's not only aesthetically pleasing but it can also work as a visual indicator that you are sending the right message to the right person once you get used to the said wallpapers.

There is a handful of them too. They are split into two categories - dark and bright. The app can also sync with your system's preference so once you turn on the dark mode, the app will switch to dark mode as well. Moreover, you can change the color of the default doodle wallpaper.

Another minor but rather useful change is the ability to search for stickers using emojis or text. A relevant sticker suggestion will pop up, similarly to Telegram.
