WhatsApp update Jan 2026: WhatsApp starts testing new features directly with users, with one limitation
WhatsApp has started testing a new way for users to try upcoming features before they are officially released. Until now, early access was mostly limited to beta testers, but the company is slowly opening the door to regular users as well. However, this new option comes with a few limitations that users should be aware of.
According to WABetaInfo’s report, WhatsApp’s new update for Android 2.26.2.11, which is available on the Google Play Store, allows direct access to use the WhatsApp beta program.
