WhatsApp starts rolling out chat-specific themes to select users: Report

Meta-owned WhatsApp has reportedly started rolling out support for chat-specific themes, allowing users to choose from 20 different colour and 22 textured themes. This new feature enables users to personalise their conversations by applying unique chat themes to specific chats.

According to WABetainfo, a WhatsApp update tracker, users can either select a default theme to apply to all chats within the app’s settings or choose a specific theme for an individual chat via the overflow menu. Each theme automatically pairs with a message colour for a unified appearance, with further customisation options available through wallpapers. The feature is currently available to select beta testers, with a broader rollout expected in the coming days.
