WhatsApp launches new colours for Android application

The platform said the update was submitted through the Google Play Beta Programme, bringing the version up to 2.21.18.1.

The update is bringing a lot of changing colours to our WhatsApp's Android application. 

WABetaInfo reported that the changes are most visible on the chat screen. Users will see different colours for the chat bubbles, the send button, and the navigation bar. 

New colours have been introduced for both the light mode and the dark mode. 

Other elements include a new coloured ring for status updates. Besides the colour change, there is also the possibility of a darker wallpaper and new icons for the chat share sheet. 

For the light theme, WhatsApp has updated the colour of the navigation bar which can be seen in the picture shared by WABetaInfo. 

The new colours will be available from August 23 for beta testers.
