WhatsApp beta for Android gets Status update mentions feature
Briefly

WhatsApp's new Status update mentions feature enables users to mention contacts in their Status updates, notifying them while keeping the original creator's identity private.
With the mention feature, when a user shares a photo or video via Status, they can click the '@' button to mention a contact, who will then receive a notification.
Unlike Instagram, the identity of the original creator remains private when a mentioned contact reshapes the Status, maintaining privacy for Status viewers.
The mentioned contact can see the Status update even if excluded from other viewers, showcasing a departure from typical privacy settings.
