While this might sound like a minor change, many users are not happy about it. 'Is anyone else really bothered by WhatsApp giving "online" & "typing' a capital letter now? It's hurting my soul,' one user vented on X (formerly Twitter). With approximately two billion active users, it's safe to say that WhatsApp is one of the most popular apps around the world. But many users have been left furious following a subtle change within the app 'Online' and 'Typing' - words displayed under the other user's name in your chats - now have a capital 'O' and a capital 'T' The subtle change was introduced on both the iOS and Android WhatsApp apps last week. And while WhatsApp did not formally announce it, it's already garnered huge attention across social media. Taking to X, one user wrote: 'Anyone else get irrationally annoyed by WhatsApp’s latest iOS update where, if someone is online, it’s now with a capital "O" (Online), or when someone is typing, it’s a capital "T" (Typing). 'Only a capital letter different, but I hate it so much.' Another added: 'Anyone else really, admittedly irrationally, hate WhatsApp for added a capital letter at the beginning of Online and Typing?'
