WhatsApp notifications will now appear with stickers
Whatsapp has submitted the beta version 2.19.130 update, in which it is reportedly working on the feature called 'Sticker Notification Preview'.
WhatsApp is working on a new feature for its popular sticker feature. According to a tweet from WABetaInfo, WhatsApp has submitted the beta version 2.19.130, which is reportedly said to bring a feature called 'Sticker Notification Preview' when it would be launched.
How will this feature work?
The 'Sticker notification preview' feature will change the way your message notifications appear on your notification panel. For instance, if a 'Sticker' is sent to you in the message, you see Sticker written in your Notification panel. But after the arrival of Android 2.19.130 beta, which is currently being tested, whenever the Sticker will be sent to someone in the message, it will show that particular sticker itself in their notification. So, after the introduction of this feature, without opening the message, you'd be able to see the sticker that has been sent to you in the notification itself.
WABetaInfo has also shared a screenshot of this new feature.
More change will be made to stickers:
According to a recent tweet from WABetaInfo, 'Animated Stickers' will also be launched in Whatsapp. According to the information, this feature will be made available on all the three platforms - iOS, Android as well as web, which are currently being tested.

NOTE: The feature is not available yet and it will be available soon.
How 'Animated Sticker' Will Work?
By clicking on the above tweet, it can be easily understood that it will be very different from the GIF. It will be like a pre-existing sticker, but will be seen moving with animation. If you have used Facebook stickers, you can understand it more easily. You might have seen some Facebook stickers which are animated, and start to move on commenting or sending a message in Messenger. It was also reported in WABetaInfo that this upcoming feature will also support third party stickers.
