With this new rollout, WhatsApp users can now add music to their Status updates, aligning them with other Meta services, such as Instagram and Facebook. The update gives users the option of adding up to fifteen seconds of music to an image and up to sixty seconds for video uploads, which, for some users, more creatively expressive Status will be a welcomed feature.

WhatsApp Status Music Key Features

- Increased Status Creativity With Music for Images and Videos: Background tunes can now be added to songs (15 seconds) and videos (up to 60 seconds) added to your Status.

- Total Cybersecurity with Encryption: As with all Songs, WhatsApp’s end-to-end encryption applies to all Status updates, including songs, ensuring that only your audience will view or listen to the content.
