WhatsApp gets accused of copying features from iMessage in iOS 10

WhatsApp

WhatsApp is constantly updating its messaging platform so that users can communicate and interact with each other on a higher level. The developers are continuously testing and implementing features that could make the messaging platform easier to use and highly productive too. However, it seems like WhatsApp has accidentally entered into a rough patch with iMessage from Apple’s iOS 10.

According to AppleApple.top, WhatsApp has been accused of copying a few features from iMessage, which is a messaging platform by Apple. The features are said to be copied from the new iMessage app which will be released with iOS 10 in September. Apple showcased the same features at the WWDC 2016 and the report states that WhatsApp has copied the same.

According to the report, WhatsApp will soon release a feature where users will be able to edit photos and also add effects and draw on them directly from the messenger screen. The same functionality was showcased by Apple for iMessage on iOS 10. The iMessage allows you to send sketches, flash, heartbeats and even draw on videos.

However, the report continues that this is not the first time where WhatsApp has borrowed features from competitors. In a previous incident, WhatsApp was also blamed for copying a feature from Telegram.

Telegram head Pavel Durov said, ‘After us they increased the maximum size of video recordings and the maximum size of groups (although never caught up according to these parameters), added status of prochitannosti, now a kind of encryption. Predict the web version, username, cloud and timer self-destruct in WhatsApp.’

As for now, WhatsApp has been reportedly testing on a few new features that are scheduled to be released soon. Features such as NFC, QR codes and links for group invitations, video calling, and a few more are expected soon.
