Love it or hate it, Stories/Status Updates have become a staple feature of social media platforms and instant messaging platforms. People end up posting a lot of photos and videos as status updates, which is good content for the platform. However, overdoing it by posting a series of photos in quick succession can make your status updates feel cluttered and burdensome to the viewer. In some instances, a combined collage photo is a better, cleaner approach. WhatsApp understands this, as the IM app has been spotted working on a photo collage feature for status updates.
Additionally, the company is also working on letting users create simple photo collage grids for posting on their status.
