WhatsApp believes this feature will prevent the confusion created by anonymous people.

The profile photo feature for WhatsApp groups is currently in the testing phase. It is unclear for now when the innovation will come to the stable version.
WABetaInfo also announced that it will bring the Blur Tool recently. Thanks to the Blur Tool, users will be able to quickly censor photos by editing them with private or sensitive content. Yet we must repeat that Seeing the profile photo in chats is only being tested for group chats. Such a feature for individual chats is not available for now.
WhatsApp frequently brings new features and makes improvements to improve the user experience.

With this number, WhatsApp separated from its competitors and took the lead.
