Overview
- The Android beta version 2.25.23.7 introduces a pen icon that offers at least three AI-generated rewriting suggestions across five tonal modes when users type three to four words.
- Users must manually enable Private Processing in settings to send snippets for encryption and anonymized routing, with Meta assuring no message or suggestion data is retained.
- Selected testers can choose from Rephrase, Professional, Funny, Supportive and Correction modes and tap suggestions to insert them in drafts without automatically sending or signaling AI involvement to recipients.
- WhatsApp is gathering performance feedback from a small group of Android beta users to determine whether to expand the feature to a wider audience.
- Privacy advocates and community members have flagged potential risks to conversational authenticity and transparency when AI-generated text becomes routine.
