WhatsApp introduces Meta AI shortcut in chats tab

WhatsApp has made accessing its in-app Meta AI chatbot more convenient with the addition of a new shortcut on the chats tab.

This feature, highlighted by WABetaInfo, is part of the latest update for WhatsApp beta version iOS 24.25.10.79. The shortcut replaces its previous location at the top of the navigation bar.

This update aims to streamline the user experience, especially on larger devices, making the generative AI chatbot more accessible.

The move seems to be focused on enhancing user interaction with AI-driven features such as creating personalized images.

Reportedly part of ongoing experiments, the update introduces the floating action button for Meta AI on Android, which may expand the reach of AI-powered features.

The broader rollout of this feature will likely depend on user feedback and preferences.
