WhatsApp Working on Cover Photo Feature for Personal Accounts

Profile photos and cover images are vital to making one's social networking profiles more personalized. So far, cover photos were exclusive to WhatsApp Business accounts, but it seems that the Meta-owned messaging app is developing this feature for use by all users in the future. This is seen as a significant change towards enhancing profile customization. Nevertheless, the feature is under development at the moment, and therefore, it might be some time before it reaches users.

According to a report by WABetaInfo, WhatsApp is working on a new feature that will allow users to upload cover photos to their profiles. When this feature rolls out, users will be able to select any image as their cover photo by going to their profile settings. This photo will appear in the top section of their profile, just like on Facebook and LinkedIn.
