According to the report, each theme comes with a set of chat bubble colours that compliments the background.
However, users will have the option to modify the background wallpaper while keeping the same chat bubble colour for more control.
It should also be noted that the selected theme will only appear on the account of the user who applies it, without affecting the other person in the conversation.The new feature will be available under a dedicated section in the apps settings for theme customisation.
The chat theme feature is expected to roll out to WhatsApp for Android in an upcoming update, while there is no confirmation yet on whether it will be introduced for iOS.First Published: Sep 20 2024 | 3:13 PMIST
