WhatsApp has started rolling out a new feature in its latest beta version 2.25.18.8 for Android. This update allows users to forward messages and media directly to Meta AI, making it easier to interact with the chatbot.
Some beta testers can now forward text, images, or videos to Meta AI straight from any chat. The forwarding screen will show Meta AI as an option if the feature is available on your device.
WhatsApp also lets users add a note when forwarding content. For example, a user can forward a photo and ask, “Is this real?” or “What is this?” Meta AI will then respond based on both the media and the question.
Before this, users had to copy and paste messages into Meta AI manually. Now, with this update, sharing content with the chatbot is much faster and more efficient.
The feature is rolling out gradually, so not all users will see it right away. It may also appear in the stable version of WhatsApp soon. Only the content users choose to share will be visible to Meta AI, and this data may be used to improve the AI.
Users can check if the feature is available by trying to forward a message and seeing if Meta AI appears as a forwarding option.
