- WhatsApp says the redesigned About is now rolling out with a gradual release to Android and iOS.
- Updates appear on profiles and at the top of one-to-one chats, where contacts can tap to reply directly.
- Entries expire after 24 hours by default, with an adjustable timer for shorter or longer visibility.
