Recently, Whatsapp has rolled out a new feature that helps in sharing the pictures in HD. Now, that social media platform is reportedly testing a new beta version internally for another new feature. This new feature could be helpful for programmers, coders and software developers. This feature is said to be an easy way for users to share and read codes on Whatsapp. It is tipped to have three formatting tools and soon will be available in Android and iOS as well, as per reports.

According to the report, this new way of quoting text will allow users to select a specific part of a message and respond to it directly. This is different from the current quoting feature on the app.

Lastly, with use of the third tool, the users can make a list using bullet points and more, in the message, according to reports.
