Meta’s WhatsApp is expected to provide the option to filter chats on ordinary accounts after a series of improvements.
The app is bringing the functionality to normal users after successfully debuting it for corporate accounts last year, according to WABetaInfo.
On beta versions of its Android, iOS, and desktop apps, the social network added easy filters for rapidly finding specific discussions.
In the following update, the feature will be gradually handed out to ordinary accounts.
The tool is available within a conversation for corporate accounts, according to WABetaInfo. Users may sort chats using four different filters: unread chats, contacts, non-contacts, and groups.
Even when no chats or messages are being searched, the filter option will always be present in the chat.
Users who have installed WhatsApp beta UWP 2.2216.4.0 version already have access to the functionality. For ordinary WhatsApp accounts, it is still in development and will be delivered in a future update.
Furthermore, the messaging app will make these conversation filters available in its main app at all times. “Standard WhatsApp accounts will be able to utilize the same functionality in a future version of the app,” the blog site added, “but there is one difference: the filter option will always be accessible even when you are not looking for conversations and messages.”
In terms of availability, this feature is still in development, so beta users of the company’s Android and iOS applications will have to wait a while before they can use it.
