Popular messaging app, WhatsApp, is set to enable users to share their status updates as Facebook Stories, without leaving the app. This new feature will make it easier for users to share their updates with a wider audience, and provide better integration between the two social media platforms.
Currently, WhatsApp allows users to share their status updates with their contacts on the app, but with this new feature, they will be able to share them on Facebook Stories as well, with just a single click. The feature will work in a similar way to how users can share their Instagram stories to Facebook, providing seamless integration between the two platforms.
The integration is part of Facebook’s wider efforts to unify its various services, including Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger, under a single umbrella. The company has already enabled cross-platform messaging between the three apps, and this new feature further expands on that integration.
The new feature is currently being tested on WhatsApp’s beta version for Android, and is expected to roll out to users in the coming weeks. It will be interesting to see how users respond to this new integration, and whether it leads to more engagement on both WhatsApp and Facebook Stories.
