"WhatsApp is bringing enhancements to those thumbnails within group chats by introducing a particular revision to make it easier to recognise group members without a profile photo."

It said that some of the beta testers on Android may be able to experiment with the same improvements today if they install the latest version update available on the Google Play Store.

As you can see in the attached screenshot, it is evident that WhatsApp introduced a revision to the thumbnails of contacts whose profile pictures are hidden or unavailable.

Previously, WhatsApp displayed a default empty profile photo with a color that matched the corresponding contact name, in order to improve their identification.

But with the new feature, the updated look of the thumbnails now displays the initials of the respective group member’s name.

The WhatsApp news tracker suggested that the enhancement will further assist other participants of the conversation by enabling them to quickly identify the contact represented by the thumbnail. Those who want to find out whether this feature is available on their WhatsApp accounts, they can open a group chat and look for a message sent by a group member whose profile picture is not visible.

The enhanced feature will be made available to more users soon.

Unlike TCP, where a three-way handshake occurs to establish a connection before data is exchanged, UDP simply sends the data without waiting for a confirmation or acknowledgment from the server. The lack of overhead makes UDP extremely fast, but it comes at the cost of reliability. Here'...
