Meta AI integration begins limited testing on WhatsApp and Instagram
Meta, the parent company of WhatsApp and Instagram, has initiated limited testing of its Meta Artificial Intelligence (AI) features within the messaging app in India. This new feature aims to streamline user interactions with Meta AI directly through the search boxes available on both platforms.
According to reports, the Meta AI chatbot feature is currently being introduced to specific users in selected countries where the app language is set to English. Users can now engage more efficiently with Meta AI by receiving recommendations and prompts directly within the search interface of WhatsApp and Instagram.
Upon opening the WhatsApp app, users will notice a distinctive ‘Blue Ring’ icon positioned in the bottom right corner. Tapping on this icon opens a new window where users can input their queries via text or voice recording.

Once you have access, you’ll notice a ‘Blue Ring’ around the search bar. Now, you can type your questions or use the microphone to ask verbally
It’s important to note that while the Meta AI chatbot feature is available for users to interact with, they also have the option to continue using WhatsApp and Instagram as usual without engaging with the chatbot. Tasks such as searching within conversations for specific messages, media, or contacts remain unaffected by the introduction of Meta AI.
The integration of Meta AI into WhatsApp and Instagram is part of Meta’s broader efforts to enhance user experience and provide intelligent assistance to its users. As the testing phase progresses, Meta aims to gather feedback from users and refine the AI features to better suit their needs.
The introduction of Meta AI on WhatsApp and Instagram represents a significant step towards leveraging AI technology to improve user engagement and efficiency within the platforms. As Meta continues to innovate and expand its AI capabilities, users can expect further enhancements to their messaging and social media experiences in the future.
