WhatsApp, the Meta-owned instant messaging platform is now working on a darker top app bar for its Android beta version. This change has been made to provide users with a different visual experience while using the app. The app has introduced a darker theme based on grayscale and the color black to offer improved performance and a more visually pleasing experience. this difference will be experienced particularly on advanced mobile phones equipped with AMOLED screens.

According to WABetainfo, the majority of users are appreciating this change though some users believe that WhatsApp should introduce a completely new dark theme for the Android app similar to the one available on WhatsApp for iOS. The development of the darker top app bar is in progress and will be released for beta testers in a future update of the app.

As per the latest news reports, WhatsApp is also working on a new white action bar for its Android beta version. This update aligns with the principles of Material Design 3 by transitioning to a white colour scheme. The redesigning of the action bar colour has been considered as a response to user feedback and now it demonstrates WhatsApp's commitment to meet user expectations and preferences.

WhatsApp keeps proving its creativity and dedication with these developments and updates that aim to enhance the user experience and continuously improve its platform through the introduction of visual modifications and incorporation of user feedback.

WhatsApp may provide a more customizable and user-friendly messaging experience for its Android users though specific rollout dates for these updates have not been confirmed.
