New WhatsApp update lets you set unique wallpapers and use stickers quicker

Always in search of more customization options for your chats? Then you'll be glad to hear that WhatsApp is introducing new features that will let you spice up your online conversations from person to person and play around with stickers more easily.

For as long as WhatsApp has been around, users have ever only been able to use a single wallpaper for all their chats. But a new update releasing soon will let WhatsApp's over 2 billion users select a unique wallpaper for each of their chats, essentially allowing you to give each contact a distinct feel and possibly helping you avoid sending the wrong message to the wrong chat.

"Make your chats personal and distinguishable by using a custom wallpaper for your most important chats and favorite people, and you never need worry about sending the wrong message in the wrong chat ever again,” said a Facebook representative in an email sent to The Verge.

The new update also comes with the ability to switch up your wallpapers based on your phone's current light or dark theme, with custom brightness options also enabled to help you fine tune each chat's readability.
