WhatsApp rolls out 'Self-chat' feature for beta users, know how it works – DNA India

Reported By:| Edited By: DNA Web Team |Source: DNA Web Desk |Updated: Nov 11, 2022, 07:53 AM ISTWhatsApp, a messaging app owned by Meta has been working on several new features for the users. A new "self-chat" feature that WhatsApp has been working on for some time appears to be finally going out to certain WhatsApp users on the beta channel. A single-person chat window can be created by the new functionality, which enables users to speak with oneself and store essential messages or files for rapid access. Since discovering them is so simple, these discussions can then be read or even forwarded at any time in the future. Users who have the feature can test it out by navigating to the contacts page in the app and looking for the contact that says Me(You) with a 'Message yourself' subtext. This feature is only available to users on the beta channel. The option to talk with oneself in WhatsApp has existed for a while, but starting a chat with your own phone number has been difficult. You simply had to create a custom URL with your phone number, which would then link you to a self-chat window when typed in

WhatsApp wants to reduce your notification overload – Android Police

Larger groups mute themselves automatically now WhatsApp is a popular messaging service for groups and individuals alike. The app’s developers recently upped the member limit for groups from 256 to 1,024 people. That, however, does not bode well for you, especially if you get a ton of notifications. Fewer large groups can be better than several smaller ones sometimes, but WhatsApp understands that you probably don’t want to hear from everyone, all the time, and tests muting bigger groups by default. It doesn’t matter if you’re an active participant or not, because even if you’re a participant in a handful of large groups, your phone could end up buzzing incessantly from the flood of incoming messages. We often manually mute such groups indefinitely, but WhatsApp is now beta testing a way to automate the process. WABetaInfo reports that beta version 2.22.23.9 of WhatsApp has a new feature where groups with over 256 participants are automatically muted by default. This applies to groups which you join after they cross the 256 member threshold. WhatsApp will also automatically mute groups after they welcome their 257th participant. You can, however, unmute the group manually if you choose to. It may be workable if
