AUSTIN, Texas (Kashmir English): WhatsApp, a Meta-owned platform, is currently working on introducing a new widget feature for accessing the Meta AI chatbot in a future update of the app.
The new feature has been designed so as to provide users with a quick and greater way to start conversations with Meta AI directly from their Home Screen, according to a WABetaInfo report. The widget will be available for iOS users in future update.
This action will directly open a conversation with Meta AI, ending the need to search for the chat manually in the app.
WhatsApp and iOS users
WhatsApp now seems to bring the same widget to iOS users in the future, ensuring a consistent experience across both platforms.
Additionally, this widget includes three buttons, each acting as a shortcut to a core feature of the chatbot.
The first shortcut would allow users to ask a question to Meta AI instantly, enhancing interactions with the chatbot, making it faster and easier to get responses from Meta AI.
The second shortcut, on the other hand, would help users to send a photo directly to Meta AI.
The last shortcut, basically concerning the voice chat mode, would allow users to open the chat with Meta AI and immediately interact with the chatbot using their voice instead of typing.
