Notably, the new feature may not be available even to beta testers of the app who have registered through the Google Play Beta Program. According to WABetaInfo reports, the platform is testing an AI Profile Photos feature in the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.11.17 update.



The forthcoming feature will enhance privacy for the user profile. Users will be able to avoid sharing a real photo using these AI-generated images. This feature will ultimately reduce the risk of misuse or unauthorized sharing of their image, as per WABetaInfo reports. Furthermore, this feature will also prevent screenshots of profile photos.

On the other hand, WhatsApp is also reportedly working on a new feature to help users better manage their incoming messages. The new feature will be especially useful for those who receive a high volume of messages each day. However, this feature is also in the development phase and has been spotted in the Android beta version.
