Instead of appearing directly as users are used to, the message now appears on the screen with a smooth movement from the right side. This seemingly small change has not been well-received by many people.

Although Meta, the company that owns the application, did not officially announce this addition, it quickly drew the attention of users and became a widely discussed topic on social media platforms.

Some expressed their discomfort with the new movement, considering it to be distracting and affecting the user experience.

One person wrote on X: "The new animation for sending messages in WhatsApp on iOS makes me feel nauseous."

Another said: "The new animations when sending messages in WhatsApp completely unnerved me," according to The Daily Mail.

This feature started appearing last week within the iOS version of WhatsApp, adding new movements when sending messages as part of the app's ongoing updates to its interface.

For those who do not prefer this change, WhatsApp provides an easy way to disable the new movement through the app settings. Simply open WhatsApp, go to Settings, choose Appearance, then Animations, and finally disable the Messages option. This will return messages to their traditional appearance that users are accustomed to.
