New "Read Later" feature coming to WhatsApp for iOS

WhatsApp is working on a new feature called "Read Later", which will be implemented as a replacement for Archived Chats.

The new feature is currently being tested on the beta version of WhatsApp for iOS, WABetaInfo reported, and is available to try out through the Apple TestFlight beta programme.
