As one of the most popular instant messaging apps today, WhatsApp continues to add new features to improve the user experience.
The latest interesting feature right now is that users can now "like" WhatsApp statuses.
WhatsApp currently has a new feature similar to the old feature on social media platforms such as Instagram and Facebook, which allows users to give likes on the status they see.
Even though WhatsApp is available in the latest version, there are some people who are still confused about how to give likes on WhatsApp statuses. Here's how.
How to like WhatsApp status
Having a "like" feature on WhatsApp statuses allows users to give a positive reaction to their friends' WhatsApp statuses that appear.
If you want to know how to give likes on WhatsApp statuses, follow these steps:
- Make sure your WhatsApp is updated to the latest version. This update can be accessed by Android users through the Play Store or iOS users through the App Store. This latest version of WhatsApp already supports the "like" feature on the status.
- Once WhatsApp is updated, go to the Status menu. There, you can see the various statuses uploaded by your friends and contacts.
- Next, select the status of any friend or contact you want to see. At the bottom right of the screen, you can see a small heart icon when the status is unlocked. You can give a "like" to your friend's status through the icon.
- To give a "like", you just have to tap the heart icon. You can give likes to your friends' status with one tap. The status creator will receive a notification letting them know that you've liked their status.
That's how to give likes on WhatsApp statuses. However, please be patient if you haven't found the feature yet.
It is possible that this feature still cannot be used as thoroughly as the previous features.
