Whats app is reportedly working to bring the Swipe to Reply feature to its Android app. The messaging app has had an evenful 2018 as it has been launching and testing new features with high frequency. The Whats App iPhone app already has the Swipe to Reply feature, which seems set to be making its way to Android devices. The new feature will let Whats App users quickly reply to a message using a swipe right gesture. It essentially means you will no longer need to tap and hold the message to get the Reply button. Additionally, the app is also said to be working on a Dark Mode.

As per a WABetaInfo report, Whats App is working on the Swipe to Reply feature in the Android app. The messaging app has recently submitted a new update through the Google Play Beta Programmer, bringing the beta version up to 2.18.282. The report claims that the feature is currently not available due to "development reasons" and that it needs to receive several improvements before being officially available for all Whats App for Android users. However, the report adds that the new Whats App feature may be available in one of the next few updates.

When the Swipe to Reply feature is available on WhatsApp for Android, you will be able to swipe a message that you want to reply to, towards the right side. Following this, WhatsApp will automatically load the message in the reply context.

Coming to the Dark Mode, WhatsApp is finally said to be working on adding the much-awaited feature. According to a tweet posted by WABetaInfo, WhatsApp has finally started working on a Dark Mode for both iOS and Android. However, the report does not mention the exact timeline for the Dark Mode to roll-out to Whats App.

The upcoming dark mode feature will help reduce strain on user's eyes while using Whats App at night or in low-light conditions. It will also help conserve battery on phones that have OLED displays
