During those days, which were relatively cool compared to now, don’t you remember the unmatched experience of switching between WhatsApp chats, calls, and statuses? Maybe finding your way back to that pleasant behavior! So after several rounds of beta handtracking WhatsApp is back again with a swipeable navigation bar for users of Android handsets.

This is the site, WABetaInfo when it was added to the latest version (2.24.7.2) of the testing phase about a week ago. The swipeable bar could potentially be made available to many people in addition to a very static version.

For some people, going through tabs may be more familiar and thus the tool to do so is more intuitive, however, this is a complete contradiction to the design principles of Android. WhatsApp can now eliminate this feature. There may be a case where they cancel the second edition in the future.

But wait, there is more! The seek bar at the top of the chat list, now displayed by using WhatsApp, has additionally been changed with a search icon. This straightforward template may be suitable, but, according to WABetaInfo’s thoughts, some fine-tuning could be done before its worldwide deployment.

It is noticeable that WhatsApp is going to make some changes in its design and by the end before you know it, they will have upgraded it to provide a better user experience. In the long run, it is still unclear what will be the end of the navigation bar or the search bar. However, these tests show that the company is committed to improving.
