The Arattai app now features read receipts and an improved gallery picker. Additionally, you can now create channels on this indigenous app, allowing users to create and follow channels of their choice. The new update also improves the quality of video calls.
Due to the popularity of the indigenous messaging app Arattai in India, Zoho is rapidly adding useful features to its product. Since Arattai is now a direct competitor to WhatsApp as a messaging app, the features in the new update are inspired by WhatsApp. Let’s explore in detail what Arattai has brought to its users in the new update.
What new will you get?
According to a new software update for Arattai, it will now feature WhatsApp’s larger read receipt feature. This means that if you read someone’s message on the app, the other person will be notified by two blue tick marks indicating that their message has been read. Users have been demanding this feature for a long time. Another feature is the new gallery picker, which will make it easier for people to share photos or videos with anyone in their chat.
The channel knocked
In addition to WhatsApp’s read receipt feature, Arattai also has the Channel feature. This means you can now create and follow channels based on your interests. It’s worth noting that the Channel feature is a major feature of WhatsApp. People can follow their favorite topics or celebrities on WhatsApp through channels.
Video calls will be better
According to Arattai, the new update has made video call quality even smoother and better. Now, when making video or audio calls on Arattai, you’ll experience better quality. The update also fixes some bugs.
The wait for end-to-end encryption is long
It should be noted that the end-to-end encryption feature has not yet arrived on Arattai in this update. This is also a feature that people are eagerly waiting for. It should be noted that WhatsApp is considered very secure in terms of privacy due to its end-to-end encryption feature. Due to this feature, no third person can read or listen to any chat or call of the user. This feature is so secure that due to this, even WhatsApp itself cannot access the chats of the users. Zoho’s founder, Sridhar Vembu, has said many times that he will soon include this feature in Arattai and work on it is currently underway.
