After Android, WhatsApp started expanding the animated avatar feature for iOS devices. This initiation is an effective way to make the chat more fun and interesting among consumers. Besides, it enhances the overall user experience and makes the application more efficient.
According to the details, WhatsApp is rolling out the animated avatar feature for iOS users with the 2.23.16.72 beta version. Note that this update is only available to beta testers via the TestFlight Beta Program. Meanwhile, the company will soon release a stable version for other users.

Notably, you can share these avatars with anyone as it’s not needed to use the beta version to be able to receive them. In addition, only a limited number of stickers are animated, but we expect that WhatsApp may offer an animated version of the entire avatar pack over time.
