WhatsApp, a popular instant messaging application, gets regular limelight for testing new features and introducing them later in the stable build. In the latest move to upgrade the experience, the company is adding text formatting options and a sticker creation tool in the stable build on iOS. According to the official changelog on the Apple App Store, these options are rolling out in the "iOS 24.2.75" version.

According to WABetaInfo, some of the features may not be available to users as they are in the roll-out phase, and some accounts may be able to access them in a previous build. iPhone users can update their app from the App Store to check the availability of the features on their device. For the unaware, WABetaInfo spotted the new formatting options and sticker maker in the iOS 23.21.1.75 and iOS 24.1.10.72 beta build.
