How to add music to WhatsApp Status?
WhatsApp Status used to be a simple feature for sharing photos, videos and text with your contacts.

Recently, a Meta-owned messaging app has added musical tracks to WhatsApp Status.
If you are familiar with Instagram’s Story features, then you must be feeling like Deja-vu! WhatsApp users can make Status music while adding music just like Instagram Story. “When creating a Status, you’ll now see a music note icon at the top of your screen,” WhatsApp said in a blog post.
