WhatsApp Tests Audio Stickers, Redesigned Message Composer on Android
—————————————-
WhatsApp is testing new features for its Android app, including audio-enabled stickers and a redesigned message composer, according to recent reports by Android Authority and WABetaInfo.

The audio-sticker feature could allow users to attach recordings of up to 10 seconds to stickers created from still images. Users may be able to record audio directly or select an existing audio file from their device. For animated stickers created from videos, the app could include five seconds of audio by default, with the option to replace it.

WhatsApp is also developing a two-line message composer that would place the typing area on the upper line and move attachment and media tools to a separate row below, potentially making the interface easier to use.

Both features remain under development, and WhatsApp has not confirmed a general release date. The final features and interface may change before public availability.
