The Android version of WhatsApp has regularly been updated.
The recent weeks have seen a lot of changes being thrown our way.
Let us take a look at what the latest version of the application has in store for us.
There are a lot of new features that the latest version of WhatsApp brings for us.
You can keep a check on the amount of data that the application is consuming for WhatsApp calls.
The settings of the notification can be changed. The user interface has also shown many good changes.
The reports from Android Police also show that the notification sounds can be easily customized for both individual and group chats.
The Android version of WhatsApp now provides users with a wonderful new addition of a new notification box for Android devices.
The new setting will make it possible for the users to modify the way in which the notifications are presented.
The notifications can be muted for a certain time period as required for a user.
Notifications can be turned off in totality as well.
WhatsApp developers now realize that their app needs a bit of color and hence they are apparently moving towards the kind of customizability that WhatsApp plus has been providing to its users.
The users of WhatsApp for Android would also be able to make changes to their application like setting the notification light and tones, the kind of notifications that pop up, the length of time for which the vibration occurs, and make other modifications in the way notifications are presented.
The newest version of the application also allows you to mark the conversations as unread.
The arrangements of chats in the chronological order however, would not be disturbed.
You would only be benefited by the feature because it would let you gauge which messages you have not checked.

The users who are changing their device can make use of the cloud .
