The new function on WhatsApp will help anyone who find too many animations overwhelming or distracting.

WhatsApp introduces a novel tool for controlling chat message animations.
A capability to control chat message animations is being developed by WhatsApp!
According to WABetaInfo, this feature would make it simple for users to control the motions of GIFs, stickers, and emojis.
Unless the user interacts with them, animated stickers and emojis will stay motionless if autoplay is disabled. Unless the user chooses to play them, GIFs will remain static.

For anyone who find too many animations overwhelming or distracting, this option will be helpful.
All users will have access to this functionality in upcoming updates, which is currently in the development stage.
WhatsApp is also developing a new feature that will allow users to contact human chat assistance directly from the web client.
Instead of depending on automated systems, this new service will enable customers to receive real-time assistance directly from human support specialists.
Users will receive a message asking them to explain why they sought out to WhatsApp’s support team.
After submitting their response, their request will be processed and they will get a follow-up message in the same conversation.
Additionally, WhatsApp is introducing a new feature for connecting to business platforms along with AI-powered replies.
By scanning a QR code, businesses can activate AI to respond to customer messages automatically even when employees are unavailable.
