WhatsApp users will be able to add custom message while forwarding content

WhatsApp is reportedly planning to help make it easier for users to customise forwarded messages. A new report by WABetaInfo has stated that the feature currently in beta for Android v2.24.25.3, will work with messages, documents, videos, images and links. 

This means that users will be able to add some details to a message while forwarding it unlike now where users have to manually send a message separately after forwarding something. 

Even if users are forwarding an image or a video clip, they can add a message to it. 

Additionally, users can even do this with messages that aren’t forwarded.

There is no news around when the feature will be made available yet but is expected to be rolled out in the upcoming weeks. 

The messaging platform recently added new features including the ability to transcribe voice messages and more interactive status updates.
