Popular messaging app WhatsApp recently introduced the Chat Lock feature which allowed users to lock and password protect individual chats. Now it appears that the Meta-owned platform is working on a redesigned message menu for Android users.
As reported by WABetaInfo, the website which tracks the changes in WhatsApp build, the messaging app tweaks the interface of the app for Android users. The report adds that the company is bringing the interface inspired by its iOS app. Available for some Android beta testers, WhatsApp will soon get a new user interface with a bottom navigation bar.
WABetaInfo also shared a screenshot of the upcoming feature. In the screenshot shared above you can notice the redesigned menu which shows up when selecting a message. Along with the redesigned message menu, the company is also working on introducing a bottom navigation bar same as its iOS app.

The inclusion of a bottom navigation bar in the app enhances user navigation by providing convenient access to various sections, ensuring improved accessibility to all features. “The tweaked user interface that includes a bottom navigation bar is under development and it will be released in a future update of the app”, adds the report.
