WhatsApp users are expressing frustration over a new update that replaces the traditional "typing..." message with a more animated chat bubble, Daily Mail reported.
The change, which many say was implemented without proper notification, has drawn widespread criticism on social media.
The update removes the static "typing..." indicator, replacing it with an animated bubble that appears below the most recent message. Though minor, the tweak has become a hot topic among users, some of whom describe it as distracting and unnecessary.
On platforms like X (formerly Twitter), complaints have been flooding in, with one user noting, "WhatsApp now has the three dots typing thing like iMessage, and I HATE it." Others have gone further, calling the animation "anxiety-inducing" and "pressuring."
The feature, which mirrors a similar indicator in iMessage, is expected to be rolled out to all users soon, despite the negative feedback.
