Noticed something different in your WhatsApp chat screen lately? You’re not imagining it there’s been a quiet but clever design update. Previously, contact and group icons were just grey outlines. Now? They’ve got colorful background circles. Here’s why this subtle change matters: ✅ It’s now easier to scan and differentiate between individual chats and groups ✅ The color backgrounds help break the monotony of grey placeholders ✅ They create a warmer, more human feel — especially where no profile picture exists ✅ Could even help you spot blocked contacts more intuitively in the future #WhatsApp #WhatsAppUpdate #UXDesign #ProductDesign #MobileUX #DesignThinking #WhatsAppMarketing #WhatsAppAutomation #ChatDesign #MessengerApps #UserExperience #JakobsLaw #DesignMatters #ProductStrategy #DigitalDesign #ConversationalMarketing #WhatsAppForBusiness #WhatsAppBusiness #MessagingApps #CustomerEngagement #DesignUpdates
