How typing indicator works on WhatsApp

The majority of WhatsApp users noticed this new typing indicator on their devices.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), according to various reports, the new typing indicator is currently available to the beta version of WhatsApp rather than the stable release while indicating a wider rollout. There are some limited reports from the iOS version, but they’re not nearly as broad.
