Meta-owned messaging application WhatsApp is rolling out a redesigned typing indicator for individual and group chats, and its accessible for some beta testers.
Earlier, when a user was typing in a chat, the typing indicator used to appear at the top of the screen in the application bar under the group name highlighting who was typing, reported WABetaInfo.

Notably, this update also applies to the voice recording indicator. This now appears within the chat interface in a similar manner giving a consistent experience for both typing and recording activities.
The new typing indicator also appears in individual chats. By integrating with the chat screen, it maintains a consistent experience.
Moreover, when many users are typing at the same time in group chats, their profile icons will now show within the chat. This will give users a clear indication of everyone who is active.
The new update is part of WhatsApp’s dedication to making a more dynamic conversation experience with the introduction of features that provide real-time feedback during chats.
