WhatsApp have been very busy this year by adding a lot of useful features to it messaging app to improve the user experience.

The recent new WhatsApp update now support sharing of any type of file and now currently testing a feature that'll allow you to view YouTube videos directly within the chat window, eliminating the need for the app to launch the YouTube app for playback.
These new feature could save a few headaches, like when you’re chatting with someone and you receive a link to a YouTube video.


Instead of opening up the YouTube app to watch the video then navigate back to WhatsApp to continue the conversation. With the new feature you can now easily press the play button and watch the YouTube video.

The feature enables playback to be launched in a picture-in-picture window, while also offering functionalities like pinch-to-zoom, full screen view mode, and hide ongoing playback to continue reading messages in chat.
For now there’s no news about this feature for Android and Windows Phone users.

Re: Whatsapp To Get Youtube Video Support Directly Within App by mainman7(m): 7:36am On Jul 18, 2017
Nice one whasapp. My great Awoist friend is currently working on a software that would take the world by storm, you all should watch out.

Basic123:


just like an average biafran will die if he doesn't shout Afonja in a day.
Some intelligent NLander Yoruba guys and I were discussing igbo/Yoruba observed stuffs and we came to one conclusion that some igbos were applying 48 Laws of Power rules to brainwash gullible Yorubas here. Last year, they started derogatorily calling and generalizing all Yorubas as Afonjas when we were known as Awoists since my earliest times on NairaLand. They know you soon take on the Character of the name you accept. Before this igbos started this nonsense, we on NL know purselves to be Awoists portraying the great Awolowo values. Just like the igbos planned and hoped, now some gullible easily brainwashed Yorubas go like "we Afonjas are the best" .... Afonja was the greatest Enemy of Yorubas while Awolowo brought innumerable great pace-setting Achievements to Yoruba Land and to Nigeria as a whole. Awolowo is Nigeria's Greatest Generallissimo whose millitary intelligence and strategy quickly ended long-fought Civil war. igbos fabricated and perpetuated a lie that Awo ate poison when it was medically confirmed that Awolowo died from cardiac issues, which must have resulted from restlessly patrotically carrying the burden of efforts to make Nigeria great. Even Great Britian said Awolowo is the best President Nigeria never had. Some brainwashed Yorubas may try to point out Awo's fault, forgetting that NO humanbeing can be perfect. Ojuckwu cowardly ran away, yet igbos celebrate him till date. If he was to be Yoruba, he would have been skinned alive when he returned. Infact, his family would have been made to forever bury their head in shame. If you have NEVER achieved 10% of what Awo achieved for Yorubas and you crucify Awo... Any igbo that calls we Yorubas afonja again instead of Awoists shall soon shattered by thunder!

Hope YouTube ad will still run within the app?
Re: Whatsapp To Get Youtube Video Support Directly Within App by Ojisik(m): 7:42am On Jul 18, 2017
WhatsApp may soon push Gmail, Yahoo and Microsoft Outlook out with the update that allows sharing of any file type.

1.They simply need an account that can be logged into remotely like Facebook whether or not I have my phone on me.

2. We should be able to like or dislike profile pics, although Zuckerberg won't allow that because it'll trump Facebook and Instagram which he owns.

I love WhatsApp grin shocked
