New Delhi: Meta-owned WhatsApp has rolled out a new feature for users to easily find the people and groups that matter to them. The new feature allows users to add contacts and groups as favourites, allowing them to filter through chats more quickly.
Moreover, the favourites filter has also been extended to the calls tab on WhatsApp so that users can speed-dial their family or friends. However, the company said that the new feature will be rolled out to all users in the coming weeks.
The newly launched feature functions as an additional Chat Filter, which hides all conversations except those added as a favourite. Chat Filters were introduced in April this year, enabling users to view all messages, filter by unread messages, or display only group chats.
