Good news for WhatsApp lovers, as social media giant Facebook is testing features of its subsidiary a lot more prominently in the main app.
A few FB users are reporting that they have seen a dedicated WhatsApp button in the main Facebook app on Android.
When clicked, the button acts like a shortcut, opening WhatsApp without the need to leave the Facebook app.
According to The Next Web, the new shortcut button can be found in the menu area. If you happen to be one of the users in the control group, it should appear at the top, right under your name. But chances are not everyone will be able to see it yet.
The shortcut is currently being tested on the Android version of the app, but it could very well be available to some iOS users too.
For context, this is hardly the first time Facebook has been experimenting with integrating its subsidiaries into the main app.
In fact, the company was spotted testing a similar shortcut for Instagram earlier this month.
As with any other test, there is no telling whether and when the WhatsApp shortcut will become available to all Facebook users.
