Brace yourselves! Another WhatsApp feature is coming soon. The instant messaging platform is reportedly working on a new feature that would allow you to edit images within the chat, helping users save time. According to a report by WhatsApp tipster WABetaInfo, the new feature is called ‘Quick Edit Media Shortcut’ and will allow users to edit images sent or received in chats without having to switch to any other app. As of now, the Facebook-owned instant messaging platform doesn't have the option to edit and the users need to open new app to edit the images.

The new feature is not available for public use right now but the report claimed that it will soon be available for both Android and iOS platforms. The feature is being introduced so that the users can forward media without having to spend a lot of time on editing it. WhatsApp does not have native support for editing images. This forces users to rely on other options like phone’s gallery app or a third-party photo editor to make changes.

The Quick Edit Media Shortcut will appear on top of the three-dot menu options available for an image opened in a chat. The users will have to tap on the edit option and it will open quick options to doodle on an image. The feature appears similar to the editor that you already get for WhatsApp Status. The report also claimed that WhatsApp is unlikely to make any changes to the existing photo editing tool. However, the timeline of the roll out this feature is still unknown. 

Meanwhile, WhatsApp users need to be aware of a malware named Agent Smith which is reportedly taking over Android phones across the world. It has so far infected over 25 million phones of which over 15 million (over 1.5 crore) are in India, a recent report has claimed. The malware spreads through third-party app stores and hides itself by changing its name to a regular-looking app like Google Updater.

"Disguised as a Google-related application, the malware exploits known Android vulnerabilities and automatically replaces installed apps with malicious versions without users' knowledge or interaction... Dubbed Agent Smith, the malware currently uses its broad access to the devices' resources to show fraudulent ads for financial gain, but could easily be used for far more intrusive and harmful purposes such as banking credential theft and eavesdropping," noted Check Point report.

WhatsApp is a demanding mistress. You can't not have it these days, given that it's largely how everyone communicates. And if you have it, it sometimes chimes so much you just want it to shut the hell up. Well, there are a few options to do that.


The simplest thing of course would be to just put your phone on silent mode. But maybe WhatsApp is the only thing bothering you, and you want to be alerted to your calls and emails. That could be a problem then.

WhatsApp But unlike other social media apps, WhatsApp doesn't have a 'Go Offline' or 'Busy' setting. You're either online or you're not. Luckily, there are some alternatives to the binary choice of deleting the app or the incessant chiming driving you insane.

1. Turn off  'Last Seen' and your 'Read Notifications'

The easiest way to tune out is to turn off your 'Read Notifications' from the Account tab of your WhatsApp settings menu. This stops people from receiving the blue tick that tells them when you've opened the app and seen a new message. Of course, this works best if you also turn off your 'Last Seen' setting from the same location. It's the simplest way to tell your friends you need some time to yourself. For those that can't take the hint, the next few ideas should work.

2. Disable notifications

This one is fairly simple, just go the 'Apps' section of your phone settings menu, select WhatsApp, and disable all notifications for it. Turn off the vibration and pop-up notifications, and select the 'None' ringtone. Now you won't feel compelled to check your phone every few seconds. At least, so long as your display remains off and you don't look at the blip on your app icon.

3. Turn off WhatsApp notification light

Once you've turned off your phone notifications, you're going to also want to turn off the notification LED that blinks when you get a message. To do that, go into your WhatsApp settings, enter the 'Notifications tab, and turn the light off. Presto, you are now officially dead to all its conversations.

Additionally, you can also remove the app icon from your Home screen. That way, with the notifications for the app turned off, there's no way to know what messages you've received until you manually open the app from the app drawer.

4. Turn off mobile data for WhatsApp

Or maybe that's not enough, maybe you don't want other people to know you're just ignoring your messages. To do that, you can just turn off your mobile data for WhatsApp. Go into the 'Apps' tab of your settings, and toggle on the 'Disable Wi-Fi' and 'Disable Data Usage' options. Alternatively, you can just force stop the app until you open it up again later. The problem here is people might just call you if they think you're not receiving their messages.

Instant messaging app WhatsApp is soon going to roll out a shortcut for editing images that will allow users to make the changes in an image they have received on WhatsApp before sending it to other contacts.
Called the ‘Quick Edit Media Shortcut’, this feature is said to save time of the user and the storage of their smartphones in case they want to send an image on WhatsApp by tapping on the edit.



The feature has been spotted by WABetaInfo, the Twitter account that tracks the changes and upcoming features in the Facebook-owned platform, on both iOS and Android platforms. It has also provided screenshots for both of them to show where the new edit option will appear. While in iOS, the edit icon will appear at the bottom on the screen next to the share icon, in Android users will be able to find the edit option by tapping on the three dot icon on the top right corner.



As per WABetaInfo, this feature is not yet available on either of the platforms right now as WhatsApp is working on it “in order to ensure the best bug-free experience for you, before the release for everyone.” Therefore there is no final word on when this feature will be rolled out to users.
From the screenshots, it is visible that the Quick Media Edit Shortcut is not bringing any new editing features to the platform and merely provides a quick shortcut to the existing options which include crop, add text and draw doodles.
Earlier this month, it was reported that WhatsApp is also working on rolling out a feature to allow users to scan QR codes easily. As per the tweet, shared by WABetaInfo, WhatsApp is working on this feature in the Android v2.19.189, however, it is not yet visible.
