WhatsApp redesigns videos – controls no longer interfere with viewing

The team at the popular messenger WhatsApp has begun testing a redesigned Picture-in-Picture mode.

WhatsApp redesigns videos – controls no longer interfere with viewing

The picture-in-picture mode itself has been available in WhatsApp since 2018. It is useful when someone posts a link to a video from YouTube, Instagram, or Facebook – the user can launch the video in a small pop-up window and continue chatting.

This feature has hardly changed over the years. And now, WhatsApp has finally updated it with a fresh test update – you can watch the new feature in the beta version of WhatsApp 2.21.22.3 for Android.

It was and it is

The innovation drew attention to the thematic resource WABetainfo. The redesigned Picture-in-Picture mode adds a new control panel to the player. It appears at the bottom of the video and contains controls such as pause / resume, full screen, and close buttons. Previously, these controls appeared directly on the video and often interfered with viewing.
