WhatsApp design has been radically updated

This week saw the release of a major update for the mobile versions of the WhatsApp application. After installing it, users of the service on Android and iOS devices will be able to experience the updated interface, which aims to make interaction with the app more comfortable.

First and foremost, it's worth noting the change in the color palette of the interface. Green has become the accent color, used for highlighting notification icons and buttons. In the Android version of WhatsApp, more radical changes can be observed: the navigation panel has been moved to the bottom of the screen, making the app more similar to the iOS version.

Regarding WhatsApp's dark mode, it claims that the change in the color scheme will provide a higher level of contrast and richer dark tones to "reduce eye strain in low-light conditions." Developers note that users wanted to see a "darker mode," so it has been implemented in the app.

In the developers' message, they emphasize their aim to make WhatsApp a simple, reliable, and confidential application. The product design has been altered to make it easier for users to communicate with each other. One of the goals set by the developers is to make WhatsApp as convenient as possible for communication, and they strive to achieve it.
