To change your status in WhatsApp, you need to proceed slightly differently for Android and iPhone phones
iPhone: Change status message on WhatsApp
If you want to change your WhatsApp status on the iPhone, proceed as follows:
- Open WhatsApp and tap on “News” in the bar at the bottom of the screen.
- Next to “My status”, tap on the pencil icon to enter edit mode or on the camera icon to take a photo.
- If you have tapped the pen symbol, you can enter a text below and save it by tapping the arrow symbol.
- You can change the font by tapping on the “T” at the top right in edit mode. To select a different background color, tap the palette icon.
