WhatsApp Launches AI-Powered Writing Suggestions on iOS
WhatsApp's Writing Help uses Private Processing technology to keep messages secure while offering AI-generated rewrites in various styles, initially for English users in select countries.
- WhatsApp on Wednesday unveiled the Writing Help feature, allowing users to rephrase, proofread, or adjust message tone within the app, Meta's messaging platform announced.
- WhatsApp announced an English-first rollout, initially offering the optional feature in the United States and select countries, with expansion planned later this year.
- Users who draft messages in personal and group chats tap the in-chat pencil icon to access Writing Help, which offers at least three alternative phrasings across five tones for review.
- WhatsApp emphasises that Private Processing prevents access by Meta; the company says Writing Help uses this technology, audited by NCC Group and Trail of Bits, ensuring message recipients cannot detect AI refinement.
- Meta still faces criticism and regulatory scrutiny, including recent restrictions in Russia and a major U.S. Federal Trade Commission antitrust case, while critics warn AI tools may undermine chat authenticity.
