WhatsApp Tests iPhone-Inspired Design for Android

WhatsApp is testing a redesigned interface for Android phones, featuring a floating navigation bar at the bottom of the screen with rounded edges.

The proposed layout appears to take inspiration from the iPhone interface, bringing a different visual style to the Android version of the messaging app.

The floating bar is the main feature described in the update. Rather than appearing as a fixed strip across the bottom, it is designed to look like a separate, rounded element.

The change remains in testing and does not indicate that the redesigned interface is available to all Android users.

No release date or details about a wider rollout were provided.
