Instant messaging application WhatsApp Messenger’s latest update on iOS has brought a slew of features including a new animation for voice messages and the ability to disable receipts for these messages.

According to Mashable, the latest update is now live on the Apple app store and comes with minor changes to the instant messaging app. The new features include a new progress bar animation that has been added for voice messages.

For instance, WhatsApp is finally enabling the possibility to import custom third party animated sticker packs in the app.

This new capability is being rolled out by WhatsApp for the users in Brazil, Iran and Indonesia. The versions compatible with the feature includes Android 2.21.3.19 and newer versions, as well as iOS 2.21.31.2 and above. WhatsApp also finally rolled out the WhatsApp mute video feature for Android users, Mashable reported.
