Latest Whatsapp Beta Update Introduces a new font for Smartphones & Computers

Facebook’s instant messaging app, Whatsapp has introduced quite a few new features. The company has introduced the usage of bold, italics, and strikethrough text in the android, iOS, and web app. Now the latest beta version (2.12.535) of Whatsapp packed a new font which can be used by adding three backticks (`) at the beginning and end of the message. The users can reply in the chat or just to the particular message using this new font.

Though there is no much change in the font, it adds more space between every letter in the message. Adding emoji in between the backtick will not bring any change to it. The users can also get their hands on the newest features even before the public update by using the beta apps, but this advantage comes with other bugs as it is not the public update. To get the latest beta updates via Play Store, the users need to register as a Tester.

Once the user is signed up as Tester, Whatsapp will be shown in the Beta section in the “My apps & games” menu in the Play Store. The rumored video calling option is yet to be made available while the voice calling is introduced in early 2015.
