WhatsApp is rolling out chat filters to make it easier for instant messaging platform users to find the conversation they are looking for without having to scroll through the entire inbox.
Meta-owned instant messaging platform said that chat filters will allow users to find unread messages and groups fast, without having to scroll through the entire inbox.
With chat filters on WhatsApp, users can choose between three filters that appear at the top of the inbox. These filters comprise all, unread, and groups. Below are the details.
All: Taping on “All” will provide the default view of all messages.
Unread: Selecting the “Unread” filter only shows messages that are either marked as unread or have not been opened by the user yet. This filter allows prioritising responses and groups all the messages together that the user might want to respond to.
Groups: The “Group” filter organises all group chats from the inbox in one place, making it easier to find a WhatsApp group among individual conversations. This filter will also show subgroups of Communities that the user is part of.
