Before entering the merits of the novelty in question, we remind you that you can find all the latest news on the most famous messaging app in the world – such as, for example, those relating to the discovery of new channels and the distinction of chats with a destination – in our pages dedicated to WhatsApp for Android and WhatsApp for iOS and desktop.
WhatsApp Beta 2.25.17.27: the news of the update
THE Chat filters Of WhatsApp They are an apparently banal function but in the practical act very useful in everyday life and in unsuspected times – precisely last February – we had already told you about the ongoing tests to make them always available (overcoming the previous mechanism, which presupposes to drag the list of chats down to make them appear). Well, the WhatsApp team does not intend to stop here, but rather aims to exploit the chat filters to make some operations much more efficient.
Following the release of the update 2.25.17.27 of WhatsApp Beta for Android, clues have been found according to which in the future the chat filters can be exploited for one more advanced management of notifications. As you can see from the following screenshots, users should be offered the possibility of silence the notifications of all the chats falling in a certain list. In fact, it would be enough to perform prolonged pressure on a list to make a new contextual menu appear containing various useful options: Change, Elimine, Reorganize the lists and above all Notifications. The latter option will allow you to silence the notifications of the chats enclosed in that list for 8 hours, for a week or forever. The same option will also be made available in the app settings.
It is, on closer inspection, a potentially very useful novelty, which would allow users to save the time necessary to manually perform boring and repetitive actions. The function could prove convenient for professionals, students, but also for all those who are attentive to the management of their chats.
Reached the final jokes, it is essential to highlight how the new function described is still in the development phase and as at present is not yet available For no user, not even for those of the beta branch.
