WhatsApp’s big new design update brings ‘Liquid Glass’ style

WhatsApp is getting ready for a fresh new look inspired by the “Liquid Glass” design style recently introduced by Apple in its latest iOS updates.

Early signs of this redesign were seen in late 2025, when beta users noticed small changes in the app’s interface. These included minor updates to the main chat screen. Now, more details about the upcoming design have started to appear.

New Chat Interface

According to reports from WABetaInfo, WhatsApp is working on a new in-chat design. This updated interface may include a floating chat bar and a translucent navigation bar, giving the app a more modern and clean look.

Right now, this new design is not available to the public or even to beta users. It is being tested internally by the company.

Slow Rollout Expected

WhatsApp’s parent company Meta seems to be taking a slow approach with this update. Many users are still waiting for earlier design changes, which suggests that the full update may take some time to reach everyone.

It is also not clear yet whether this new design will only be for iPhone users or if it will also come to Android devices.

Overall, users can expect a more stylish and smoother WhatsApp experience once the update is officially released.
