WhatsApp Offers a Glimpse of Dedicated Sticker Search Through Latest Beta

WhatsApp was originally spotted enabling sticker search shortly after it brought stickers in 2018


WhatsApp seems to be all set to make it easier for users to find relevant stickers for their conversations, nearly two years after bringing sticker packs to its platform. The latest beta version of WhatsApp for Android gives a glimpse of the new experience. It comes with a search bar to let you easily find stickers from your collection. Also, there are distinct tabs - categorising different stickers on WhatsApp on the basis of their emotions, such as love, greetings, and happiness.

As first spotted by WhatsApp features tracker WABetaInfo, the change is a part of WhatsApp version 2.20.198.5 beta for Android. It brings a lens button that sits next to the emoji, GIF, and sticker shortcuts to let you search for the available stickers. Once you tab that button, the instant messaging app opens a screen that provides you with a search bar as well as shows all your stored stickers in distinct tabs, namely All, Love, Greetings, Happy, Sad, Angry, and Celebrate.

You can either move from one tab to another to find a relevant sticker for your conversation. Alternatively, WhatsApp has provided the search bar to let you find a sticker by typing the emotion you want to express through it.

Notably, WhatsApp has provided the search feature temporarily as it disappears once you use it for the first time. This means that you won't be able to see the lens button on a permanent basis even on the beta version. Nevertheless, its appearance at a glance is enough to suggest how the messaging app would enable sticker search on its platform.

You can experience the addition of sticker search by downloading the latest beta version of WhatsApp from Google Play. Alternatively, you can download its APK file from APK Mirror.

WhatsApp was originally spotted enabling the search feature for stickers shortly after it introduced sticker packs on its platform back in October 2018. However, up until now, just some screenshots leaked online suggested the new addition.

Alongside enabling sticker search, WhatsApp is apparently in development to bring multiple device support that would be called Linked Devices. A recent reference suggested that the messaging app would enable syncing of chat history across all platforms to enable multiple device support.

What is a DDoS Attack? First, we must define the meaning of a DDoS attack. DDoS attacks are a main concern in internet security, and many people misunderstand what exactly they are. A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt to upset typical internet traffic of a targeted server by overwhelming it with traffic from multiple sources. DDoS attacks target a plethora of important resources, from banks to news websites, and present a major challenge to making sure Internet users can publish and access important information. A DDoS attack is similar to a traffic jam on a highway, preventing typical traffic flow. How does a DDoS attack work? A DDoS attack requires the attacker to gain control of a network of online machines. Computers are infected with malware, turning them into a bot. Then, the attacker has control over the group of bots, now called a botnet. Once a botnet is established, the attacker will send instructions to each bot from a re

8 Best DDoS Attack Tools (Free DDoS Tool Of The Year 2021)

  The list of the Best free DDoS Attack Tools in the market: Distributed Denial of Service Attack is the attack that is made on a website or a server to lower the performance intentionally. Multiple computers are used for this. These multiple computers attack the targeted website or server with the DoS attack. As this attack is performed through a distributed network it is called as Distributed Denial of Service attack. In simple terms, multiple computers send fake requests to the target in larger quantity. The target is flooded with such requests, thereby the resources become unavailable to legitimate requests or users. Purpose of DDoS Attack Generally, the purpose of a DDoS attack is to crash the website. The duration for which the DDoS attack will last depends on the fact that the attack is on the network layer or application layer. Network layer attack lasts for a maximum of 48 to 49 hours.

How to score good marks in exam?

  Being properly organized and prepared for tests and exams can make all the difference to school performance. Effective studying starts with the right attitude—a positive outlook can shift studying from a punishment to an opportunity to learn. There is no one-size-fits-all approach when learning how to effectively study. Studying methods should be tailored to each student. Everyone has different abilities, so it is important to determine what works for you and what doesn’t. (Find out what  type of learner  you are and which study techniques will work best for you!) For some students, studying and staying motivated comes easily — others may have to work a little bit harder. WHAT IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO STUDY? Finding the best way to study is an ongoing process. It isn’t something that can be left to the night before the test. You should be constantly improving your study skills to better understand what works (and what doesn’t). Learning how to study better helps avoid panic and f
