WhatsApp users will soon be able to use the same profile pictures they use on Facebook and Instagram. According to WABetaInfo, this feature has already been tested in the Android app. After this, users are given the option to use pictures from Facebook, Instagram, from the device, generated using AI, captured using the camera and also using an avatar.
This feature is not enabled by default and needs to be enabled in the Beta version of the app. Before it can be used, users need to connect their WhatsApp accounts with their Facebook and Instagram accounts. As usual, the presence of this feature in testing is not a sign that it will be launched in the near future.
WhatsApp has been testing several interesting features that were only launched after a few years. The most prominent is WhatsApp for iPad which was tested for over five years and was only launched this year.
