WhatsApp rolling out new ‘Updates’ tab on iOS beta

Meta-owned messaging platform WhatsApp is rolling out the first version of a new ‘Updates’ tab to some beta testers on iOS.

The status tab on the platform has been modified and is now called “Updates,” reports WABetaInfo.

However, channels are not available in this version as they are still in development.

With the first version of the new Updates tab, muted status updates are available within a separate section named “Muted Status”.
