• According to reports, feature is present in WhatsApp for Windows beta software 2.2247.2.0.
• From the Microsoft Store, users can download the most recent WhatsApp beta update.
• Users may now make polls and share files thanks to another new feature.

The Meta-owned instant messaging service WhatsApp is reportedly working on a new feature that would enable users to share contact cards during a chat on the Windows desktop client. According to the Windows beta 2.2247.2.0 upgrade, the instant messaging programme is reportedly working on this new feature after permitting poll creation within chat sharing sheets. 

For clients who qualify, the most recent beta of the software can be downloaded via the Microsoft Store. The messaging programme seems keen to provide additional features to its Windows desktop edition. When sharing a contact card within a chat, WhatsApp users who are using the Windows desktop client will be able to effortlessly add the recipient's address book to the shared contact card.

 The report's screen grab of the functionality reveals the new 'Contacts' option in the Share list. The report claims that Windows desktop client users of WhatsApp will have to choose the option to share a contact card. In the next days, more beta testers will likely receive access to the feature. In the meanwhile, WhatsApp announced a new feature that lets iOS and Android users poll their contacts in private and group chats. 

Like conversations, user responses to a poll question are protected using end-to-end encryption. Facebook Messenger and Telegram already offer group polls, but WhatsApp users can now use this new feature right now on their phone. Meanwhile, WhatsApp unveiled a new feature that lets iOS and Android users poll their contacts in private and group chats to get their opinions. 

End-to-end encryption is used to protect chats as well as user responses to poll questions. WhatsApp is reportedly working on a feature that will let Android users export and import backups of their offline chats via Google Drive. All chat history as well as media items like images and movies can be backed up by them. The app will probably soon make this available for beta testing.
