Di instant messaging platform wey Meta dey run, WhatsApp, don start to show signs say dem dey bring new Liquid Glass design for di chat screen. According to WABetaInfo, di new design go make di chat bar float and get frosted background wey go reflect wetin dey behind am.
Di change no come as shock because WhatsApp don hint am for beta version for late 2025. Small UI elements don begin change, but di full chat screen redesign no don reach beta users. WABetaInfo manage to activate di new interface wey include floating chat bar and translucent navigation bar.
Di navigation bar wey dey opaque before go now transparent with fade effect wey allow wallpaper and messages show from behind. But no hold your breath because Meta dey take slow approach for di release. Many users still no get di redesigned UI elements, and e go take time before everybody see am.
WhatsApp don test Liquid Glass for tab bar last year but rollout dey slow. Some users still get old design, and even where di new look dey active, di chat screen no appear updated. TestFlight app dey show say WhatsApp dey work to extend design to more users.
Di voice note player need to be compatible with Liquid Glass before wider rollout. So WhatsApp dey hold back until all major interface elements ready and consistent. No confirmed timeline yet, but once internal development stabilise, feature go roll out to more users.
