WhatsApp Rolls Out New Text Formatting Tools For Web Users: How To Use
WhatsApp is now widely rolling out to more users the ability to apply fresh formatting styles to their text messages: Code Blocks, Quote Blocks, and Lists.

The Meta-owned instant messaging platform WhatsApp has rolled out new text formatting tools to improve messaging capabilities to support code blocking, quoting specific text, and creating text lists.

“Following successful testing with a select group of beta testers over the past few weeks, it appears that WhatsApp is now widely rolling out to more users the ability to apply fresh formatting styles to their text messages: Code Blocks, Quote Blocks, and Lists,” WABetaInfo reported.

As per the report, the latest updates will bring a variety of new text formatting options to improve how users can customise the appearance and layout of their messages. The screenshot revealed by WABetaInfo gives us a glimpse of these new text formatting tools,

1. Code Block: This tool is mainly designed to make it easier for users to share code within WhatsApp. While it’s commonly used by software engineers and programmers, it’s accessible to all users in various situations, even for better highlighting messages.

To format your text as a code block, simply use backticks (`) between the desired text.

2. Quote Block: The Quote Block is useful for responding to a specific part of a previous message. You can create a quote block by adding the “>” character before the text you want to quote.

3. Lists: Lists provide a clear way to organize information. You can create ordered lists by adding one of the following characters before your text: “*”, “-“, or numbers.

“In our opinion, the addition of these new text formatting tools is a significant improvement in enhancing the user experience when sharing text messages. These tools make it easier for users to apply anew style to their messages, whether it’s for casual conversations or more formal discussions,” the report said.

New text formatting tools are now available to more WhatsApp Web beta testers and will be rolled out to more users soon.
