What if you could skip straight to the WhatsApp Status you actually want to see?
I noticed a small interaction on WhatsApp that can become frustrating when someone posts a lot of Status updates.
If a person posts 10 updates and I only want to see the 7th one, I currently have to go through the previous updates to get there.
So I explored a simple UX idea:
Let users choose the specific Status they want to view.
Instead of forcing users to move through every update in order, they could see a preview of the available Statuses and tap the one they want.
The goal isn't to add more features just for the sake of it. It's about giving users more control and fewer unnecessary steps.
The idea focuses on 3 things:
1. Faster navigation
Get to the update you care about without going through everything before it.
2. More user control
Users decide what they want to view instead of being forced into a fixed sequence.
3. Less friction
Small interactions add up. Removing unnecessary steps can make a familiar product feel much easier to use.
This is just a UX concept, not an official WhatsApp feature.
I enjoy looking at everyday products, spotting small points of friction, and exploring how they could work better.
What do you think? would you use this if WhatsApp introduced it?
Screens.

Football Insider Branding ⚽️
Football Insider is one of the most widely recognised names in modern football media, with millions of followers across social platforms and a reputation built on breaking transfer news. As the brand expanded into a wider network of 19 sister brands, the need for a unified and scalable identity system became essential.
Using Football Insider as the master brand, I developed a central concept that brings “The Insider” to life. This led to a distinctive icon built from the letterforms ‘F’ and ‘I’, forming a figure standing over a football and pointing towards the brand name. This created a bold, ownable mark designed for instant recognition across digital platforms.
Buzzing to finally be sharing this 😄
Oh Man, this is outstanding work. I just thinking how you implemented this masterpiece.
