One of the prominent changes is the introduction of green-coloured buttons and notification icons across the app. Initially tested last month, this feature has now made its way to iOS users, following its recent availability on Android.

Even in light mode, users will notice the brighter green accents, maintaining consistency with the app's design.
Additionally, the update brings a refreshed set of icons, offering a more cohesive visual experience across WhatsApp's platforms. These redesigned icons, previously spotted in beta versions, are now standard for all iOS users, aligning the app's appearance across Android, iOS, and web interfaces.

Furthermore, WhatsApp has enhanced its video calling feature by adding audio support for screen sharing. Previously, during screen sharing sessions, participants could only hear external audio captured by the microphone, missing out on device audio. With the latest update, users can now share device audio along with the screen, providing a more immersive experience during video calls. This feature mirrors a recent addition to the Android version of the app.
WhatsApp's latest update for iOS users introduces subtle yet impactful changes, including green-themed buttons and icons, consistent icon design, and enhanced audio support for screen sharing in video calls. These updates aim to improve user experience and further refine the app's functionality across different devices and platforms.
