The world’s most popular messaging mobile application WhatsApp is all set to introduce several new features in 2020. Here’s everything we know is coming down the pipeline.

The most-waited Dark Mode feature of WhatsApp is very near to roll out. In fact, as per some resources, some users have also tested it. According to the recent report by WABetal Info, a blog that is responsible for tracking WhatsApp developments, the social messaging app owned by Facebook is in progress for releasing the feature dark mode.

Earlier, WhatsApp has authenticated that it will start showing ads to its users which are 1.5billion in total – and customers are not happy with the news.

Advertisements will begin to pop up in “Status”, WhatsApp’s version of Instagram or Snapchat Stories, after this year.

WhatsApp will start showing its users ads later this year.
