For now, the feature is available for WhatsApp Beta subscribers for Android and version 2.24.20.9 is affected. Users have noticed an icon appearing near the caption bar: this is the reshare buttonwhich will however be implemented at the time of the final launch. Currently, in fact, the icon is not accompanied by any explanation and this could make it more complicated for users to understand what its purpose is.
According to rumors, in the update that will soon be made available to everyone, the button will have a larger size and a text that will make its operation understandable. In this way, using the new feature will be more comfortable and simple.
