WhatsApp is introducing a new feature aimed at enhancing user experience by keeping chat list filters permanently visible, allowing users to access them more easily.
The latest update, currently rolling out to select beta testers, enables users to see chat filters at the top of their chat list without the need to scroll down, as was previously required.
According to WABetaInfo, this feature allows users to instantly identify which filters contain new messages rather than manually scrolling through the chat list every time.
This major update streamlines chat navigation in the app, making it easier for users to manage their conversations. Whether sorting chats into personal, work, or group categories, users can quickly spot unread messages across different sections.
Additionally, businesses and professionals handling multiple chat threads will benefit significantly from this feature, as they can prioritize responses more efficiently.
Moreover, some beta testers may notice that the filter to display their favorites has been automatically moved ahead of other secondary lists.
With this improvement, WhatsApp allows users to mark specific contacts as favorites for quick access, enabling them to find their most important conversations effortlessly without having to manually adjust the filter order.
Beta testers can explore this new feature by downloading the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.25.4.12 update via the Google Play Store.
Furthermore, this update will be rolled out to more users in the coming weeks.
