Availability of formatting options
WhatsApp announced that the new formatting options are accessible to all Android, iOS, Web, and Mac desktop users. Additionally, channel administrators will have access to these options.
What are the four fresh formatting choices?
- Bulleted Lists aid in outlining steps in a process, listing ingredients in a recipe, or highlighting main points. To use, type the – symbol, followed by a space.
- Numbered Lists indicate a specific order of things, such as instructions or a recap of events. To use, type 1 or 2 digits followed by a period and one space.
- Block Quote helps emphasize key text and make it more prominent in messages. To use, type the > symbol followed by a space.
- Inline Code distinguishes specific information within a sentence. To use, wrap text with a ` symbol.
These new formatting options are additional to the existing Bold, Italic, Strikethrough, and Monospace options already available to users.
