WhatsApp has been developing a new feature in which users will be able to import their profile photos directly on WhatsApp by doing it on Facebook or Instagram. This feature, as one recent Android beta update shows, would allow an easy transfer of profile photos throughout the Meta-universe. The user would pick and ascertain the picture to import.

Highlights:

• WhatsApp beta enables direct profile photo imports from Facebook and Instagram.
• The feature simplifies updating a WhatsApp profile picture.
• Users maintain control over which imported photo is selected.
• This indicates tighter integration between Meta's platforms.
• Existing WhatsApp profile photo privacy settings remain unaffected.

This aspect takes care of the manual procedure of downloading and re-uploading profile pictures. With few clicks, the user would be able to directly transfer a selected picture directly on Facebook or Instagram to Whatsapp. The integration provides great ease in terms of the maintainability of profiles across applications of Meta.

The import process is carried out in privacy. The user makes a conscious choice and indeed confirms the application of the photo on WhatsApp. The fact that the imported profile picture on WhatsApp remains unseen to others is within the confines of the privacy setting of WhatsApp.

This feature is being developed in WhatsApp Android beta. Meta is yet to give a public launch date and iOS availability. The last stages of implementation will rely on continuous testing stages.
