WhatsApp Status is available for users to share their updates using photos and videos but now you can even add music to these stories.

WhatsApp Status is officially getting support for music as the messaging app increases its options for a popular feature. The update for Status is rolling out gradually and will be available globally in the next few weeks.

Status Updates are basically the WhatsApp version of Stories that reflects on the profile picture of the person and when you tap you can see images or short clips that disappear after a while, similar to Instagram Stories and Snapchat features.

WhatsApp Status With Music: How It Works

WhatsApp says the new feature will allow you to add the music from a library of millions of songs. The messaging says when you create a new Status, you will see a music note at the top of your screen.

You can tap on it to see a wide range of songs/tracks available to be added to your Status. WhatsApp will let you choose a short clip of the track which ranges from 15 seconds for a photo update to 60 seconds if you are adding a video to your Status.

The messaging app assures that like most of its features your Status is end-to-end encrypted so WhatsApp can’t see what you share, and we don’t know which songs you add to your Status.

WhatsApp has recently made it easy for iPhone users to change their default calling app.  Following the recent iOS 18.2 update , the messaging app lets users set WhatsApp as their default messaging and calling app, meaning when they tap a phone number or message button, the iPhone will automatically launch WhatsApp instead of the built-in Phone or Messages apps.
