Whatsapp Web is being upgraded and the update is centered around photos. We all love using WhatsApp on the desktop; it’s so convenient! However, in doing so, we often miss out on some of its best features such as photo editing. If you feel the same, this update will make you glad for sure.

Photo Editing on WhatsApp Web

WhatsApp’s web and desktop versions are said to be getting photo editing tools. This is big news because this feature was previously only in mobile apps. These photo editing tools are important because they allow users to edit photos before sending them. Moreover, there is an additional option to add stickers to make them jazzy before sending them ahead.

The new update will be rolled out after intervals depending on the regions and logistics.
