WhatsApp is preparing to launch a new feature that will allow users to create custom chat wallpapers through Meta AI. This upcoming tool will let users generate unique backgrounds simply by entering a text prompt, offering a more personalized experience than the current wallpaper options.
Currently, users can only change chat backgrounds by selecting solid colors or uploading images. However, the new feature, still in development, aims to significantly improve personalization by enabling AI-powered wallpaper generation.
According to WABetaInfo, this tool is being tested through the Google Play Beta Program and is available to a limited group of users for now. A wider release is expected in the near future once testing concludes successfully.
The AI-generated wallpapers will be optimized to fit various screen sizes and can be accessed via the chat theme settings. Users will have the option to apply these designs across all chats or tailor them for individual conversations.
Once the feature is activated, users will see a dedicated option to create wallpapers using AI. The interface will present suggestions and allow you to input your own text-based prompts. Meta AI will then generate multiple wallpaper variations based on your input. You’ll be able to choose, adjust, or regenerate these options before finalizing your preferred background.
This feature is expected to appeal to users seeking a more unique and personalized touch to their chats, offering an alternative to WhatsApp’s standard wallpaper selection.
