WhatsApp is adding two new pencils to the in-built media editor. While a pencil has been there to draw over images and screenshots before users send them, the only control offered so far was color customization. Now, users will also be able to choose between three sizes as well.

"The changes are under development, but we can give you a good preview of what will happen after installing a future update: WhatsApp is planning to add new different pencils to draw on your images and videos," WABeta Info wrote on Twitter.

The messaging application is also set to bring a new Blur feature to the platform that will let users blur parts of a photo before sending it out. The report mentioned the possibility of blur images on WhatsApp for iOS, and WhatsApp is finally working on supporting this new feature for a future update of WhatsApp beta for Android.
