WhatsApp, the popular messaging app, is set to introduce a range of new features that aim to improve its user experience. The “search-by-date” feature, which has been highly anticipated by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, is one of the new additions. Users can now search for messages more efficiently by searching for dates in this new feature. Those who frequently forget specific phrases but can still remember the exact time of conversation may find this useful.
The functionality was demonstrated by Mark Zuckerberg in a video on his official WhatsApp channel. The demonstration demonstrated how users can quickly retrieve past chats by selecting a specific date. According to Tech Crunch, the search-by date feature is now accessible on Android, iOS, Mac and WhatsApp Web platforms. Users can now search for conversations by date, and also find it in terms of media type, such as links, media, or documents.
The function facilitates the easy identification of specific confirmation or media shared within chat discussions. Users can use the search-by-date option by accessing any personal or group chat, selecting “Search,” and clicking on a calendar icon to choose the desired date. Users can retrieve old conversations and media content with ease through this method. “Chat Filters” and “Favorites” are among the new features being developed by WhatsApp to enhance the overall messaging experience. By using filters and quickly accessing starred messages, communication can be made more efficient. It has been reported that WhatsApp is developing a feature to enable the sharing of high-quality media. Latest Android beta version 2.24.5.6
According to WABetaInfo, an update titled “SpeedUp” will allow users to set a default upload quality for media files instead of manually editing them. WhatsApp’s new search-by date capability and other features are a testament to the company’s insistence on continually improving its user experience. WhatsApp’s new features will enable users to communicate more efficiently, with less effort, and in a more personalized manner.
