Meta has incorporated Stories into virtually all of its properties, but on WhatsApp it’s called a Status even though it is more or less the same thing. WhatsApp frequently tweaks its Status feature because of the fact that this is the sort of thing that could potentially end up increasing the number of people that might be willing to use it, and some of these features definitely make it easier to make the most of it.
With all of that having been said and now out of the way, it is important to note that the latest update that WhatsApp is bringing to the table will add a highly useful Status feature. This is the ability to delete a Status with an undo button instead of having to go through the rather complicated process that is currently your only option.
Deleting a status quickly is useful in situations where you might have posted something by accident. People will pick up on something you post rather quickly, so by the time you delete it using the old method many of them will have already seen it and some of them might have gone so far as to screenshot it as well.
This is a feature that will definitely make Statuses better for all users with all things having been considered and taken into account. Meta has been making changes by removing Stories from Messenger, but it seems that the company feels that Statuses are a good part of WhatsApp. This feature has been seeing a lot more usage as of late, and chances are that this will continue to grow over time. Tweaks and fixes like this will definitely help move it in the right direction, and with business accounts now getting special Status features as well it might become a key aspect of WhatsApp usage in the near future.
