San Francisco, June 6: Meta-owned messaging platform WhatsApp is rolling out a new crop tool for the drawing editor in Windows beta.

The new tool will help users to crop their images within the app itself, making it easier for them to edit media, reports WABetaInfo. Also, it will help users to save time. WhatsApp New Feature: Context Menu, New Calling Button Rolled Out on iOS Beta.

Before this feature, users had to use external image editing tools to crop their photos before sharing them. However, now, with the built-in crop tool, users don't have to leave the WhatsApp interface to crop their images.

The crop tool for the drawing editor is currently available for some beta testers and is expected to roll out to more users over the coming days, the report said.

Meanwhile, in April this year, it was reported that the messaging platform was rolling out a feature on Windows beta which disables multiple answers within polls. WhatsApp Web Down: Messaging App Back Online After Global Outage, No Statement From Meta on Reason So Far.
