WhatsApp is one of those platforms that always has some sort of new change or feature on the way. Now, there are some new changes on the way to the web client that will switch up the visuals just a bit. According to a new report, WhatsApp is working on a new sidebar for the web client along with improving the dark theme.

When it comes to the changes with the dark theme for the platform, it looks like the company is going to make it closer to what we see in the Android version of the platform. Right now, the platform has a dark mode that turns the background a dark gray look. This could make the interface less straining to look at when all of the lights are off.

Well, the company is going to make a slight change to the dark theme. This change is going to make the web version look more like the Android version of WhatsApp. The Android is a bit darker compared to the web version currently. With this change, WhatsApp will look a bit more consistent across its platforms.

The web version of WhatsApp is also getting a new sidebar. This looks similar to what you get in the Windows version. The interface will have a bar on the side with several icons that will let you navigate to other parts of the UI.

In the screenshot below, we see the Chats tab open with the bar on the side. This change will also make WhatsApp more consistent across all of its platforms. At the moment, we don’t know when WhatsApp is going to push the update to the public, but it seems that it’s well underway. So, it shouldn’t be too much longer before you see it.
