WhatsApp may allow users to pin messages within chat
WABetaInfo, the Twitter account which keeps track of the upcoming changes in WhatsApp, has reported that the Meta-owned app is developing the ability to pin messages within chats and groups on WhatsApp. A pinned message is a particular message that is highlighted within a conversation and remains at the top of the chat for easy reference. “This feature can be useful in a variety of situations, such as when a group is discussing a specific topic and a relevant message needs to be easily accessible,” mentions WABetaInfo.
WABetaInfo also shared a screenshot of the upcoming feature. As per the screenshot, when the pin action is selected, the message is pinned on the top of the conversation and it will remain there until it is unpinned. This feature makes it easy for users to quickly access and reference important messages within a conversation.
