O WhatsApp seems to have managed to eliminate one of the biggest problems for users of the app with sharing GIFs, getting these animated images to play as soon as they are shared.
count the WABetaInfo website that this change was carried out by the latest beta version for Android. According to the publication, GIFs are played automatically the first time they are seen, later the recognizable button appears giving the opportunity to see the GIF again.
BUT: WhatsApp now lets you use the same account on up to four mobile phones
This update makes a small change to the way GIFs are viewed on WhatsApp, but it should be enough to make sharing these animated images more fun.
