San Francisco, Oct 4 (IANS) Instant mobile messaging app WhatsApp on Tuesday introduced new ways to customise and enhance the photos and videos you share with friends and family around the world.

With WhatsApp's new camera features, people can now write or draw on photos and videos as well as add emojis to express themselves.

Just slide your finger up and down to zoom in and out and supports the front-facing flash.

The new camera features will roll out on Android phones starting Tuesday and on Apple iPhones soon.
