WhatsApp now allows users to pin up to three messages in a chat, making it easier to access important information such as addresses or event details. This feature, announced by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and WhatsApp head Will Cathcart, allows users to pin various types of messages and choose a duration for them to stay pinned. While this feature provides convenience, there is no option to keep a message pinned indefinitely, requiring users to re-pin messages after 30 days or use the "Star" feature for long-term access.
WhatsApp now allows users to pin up to three different messages per chat, either in groups or individual conversations, making it easier to find important messages. The feature lets users choose the duration of the pinned message and is available for both iOS and Android. Additionally, the platform has been adding new features such as text formatting options and passkey support, with more updates expected in the future.
WhatsApp is introducing the ability to pin messages in both individual and group chats. Users can pin various types of conversations, such as text, polls, images, and emojis, but only one chat can be pinned at a time. This feature is useful for easily accessing important information, such as addresses or event details. Admins in group chats can choose whether only admins or any member can pin messages. Competitors like Telegram and iMessage already offer a similar feature, and it remains to be seen if WhatsApp will extend this functionality to Channels.
