WhatsApp to add QR Code feature soon, see how it works

WhatsApp is likely to introduce a new feature — QR Code — that will allow users to add contacts on the instant messaging app. WhatsApp was first spotted with QR Code last year but the feature was never added in its stable version. WABetaInfo in a tweet said that the messaging app was working on a QR Code shortcut feature which will be enabled in future.

“In the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.19.189 update, WhatsApp is working on a QR Code shortcut (it’s not visible yet). The feature will be (obviously, you know ??) enabled in future,” WABetaInfo said. It also shared a screenshot of the QR Code feature on WhatsApp which says ‘scan, share QR code’.
