Stickers in WhatsApp (or other chat apps) can be a fun and colorful way to express your emotions and reactions, and a new feature discovered in WhatsApp's beta release makes finding the perfect sticker for the moment even easier

Discovered by WABetaInfo (via TechRadar), WhatsApp appears to be developing a new tab feature that will allow users to filter the app's numerous stickers and find the one that best fits your mood WABetaInfo According to the screenshot, there will be tabs for "Love," "Greetings," "Happy," "Sad," and "Angry"

This feature could complement the in-app sticker search feature that was discovered last year but has yet to be rolled out in the public version of WhatsApp According to WABetaInfo, there is a trick to getting this feature to work in the current app: When WhatsApp is opened for the first time and the last tab used is "Stickers," a sticker search button will appear

WhatsApp regularly adds new features to its hugely popular messaging app, and the Stickers tab should be a boon for those who express themselves more with emojis than words Other major new features will be added soon, including the ability to sync chat history across multiple devices

In other Facebook-owned messaging app news, as The Verge points out, the social media giant is integrating Facebook Messenger and Instagram direct messaging And someday, WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook may all have cross-app messaging capabilities
