The report mentioned that this new style is also available in other sections of the app and it’s not limited to the chats tab.
While other improvements to the new interface aren’t available yet, WhatsApp just rolled out a new button style to provide a sneak peek into the company’s ongoing efforts to enhance the user experience.

Moreover, some users who have installed the beta version of the app might also see the new revamped button style.
If you don’t have this feature, just wait a little while as some accounts might receive it over the coming weeks, the report said.
Last week, it was reported that the Meta-owned instant messaging platform had started testing a new video avatar calling feature. This feature is expected to allow users to replace themselves with avatars during video calls. Given that WhatsApp is owned by Meta, it's worth noting that Meta introduced the real-time avatar calling feature for Instagram and Messenger in July. Therefore, it's possible for WhatsApp to incorporate such a feature in the future.
WhatsApp also reportedly started testing an automatic security code verification feature for end-to-end encryption. For this new feature, WhatsApp is expected to introduce a revamped encryption verification screen. With this feature, the app will likely try to automatically verify whether messages are end-to-end encryption without requiring any user intervention. The automatic security code verification feature is expected to enhance the overall security and privacy of users’ conversations by checking if they are using a secure connection.
