WhatsApp has been experimenting with a new function that will likely satisfy numerous users. The latest beta version 25.1.10.73 for iOS enables the addition of music to Status updates, providing a wide range of songs from popular artists and bands. This update follows Meta’s expansion of its commercial deal with the Universal Music label.
WhatsApp Status Songs – Songs for your WhatsApp status
Some users of the beta version for iOS can now try out a feature where adding a song to a photo converts it into a 15-second video, according to WABetaInfo. The song’s duration for video-based updates is limited by the video’s duration.
Users can now search for specific music or artists directly from the Status editor on WhatsApp, enabling quick integration of favorite tracks in posts and enhancing customization options similar to Instagram.
