Meta AI experience in WhatsApp gets better

Last month, Meta updated the beta version of WhatsApp for Android with the ability for people to access Meta AI using the search bar. Well, the company has polished the feature even further and is making the new experience available in many countries across the globe.

According to a new report from WABetaInfo, the search bar in the latest beta version of WhatsApp for Android and iOS now shows the Meta AI icon and says “Ask Meta AI or search.” The icon as well as the tagline lets people know that they can use the search bar to access Meta AI in addition to searching for contacts, messages, and media. That’s not all though. The app now shows the Meta AI button at the top-right corner of the display. Once you click on it, the app will open the conversation with the chatbot.

Reportedly, WhatsApp is rolling out the redesigned search bar and the Meta AI button in many countries around the globe, including India. Unfortunately, there’s no information about the version of the app with which these changes are arriving. If you are on the beta channel, try updating the app to the latest version to enjoy the new features.
