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'.
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?'
'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)
One vented: 'Anyone else notice WhatsApp have changed the typing and online part at the top and made it a capital letter?! 'Making my eye twitch'
Unfortunately, the change appears to be here to stay, with no option available within WhatsApp's settings to revert to the previous lower case version

'Making my eye twitch.'
Unfortunately, the change appears to be here to stay, with no option available within WhatsApp's settings to revert to the previous lower case version.
However, if the new capital letters are really driving you wild, you'll be happy to hear that there's an easy workaround.
MailOnline tested WhatsApp Web and found the good old lower case options were still there!
The change comes shortly after WhatsApp launched four new text formatting options to make it easier for users to communicate.
These are the bulleted list, numbered list, block quote, and inline code.
These new options come in addition to the bold, italic, strikethrough, and monospace options that are already available.
