WhatsApp is working on new features to improve chats and notifications, and these features are now starting to roll out to users.<\/p>\n
Silent Mode<\/strong><\/p>\n The latest WhatsApp feature is silent mode, which allows users to hide the app badge for muted chats.<\/p>\n According to WABetaInfo<\/strong><\/a>, the new silent mode feature is already active for Android users and is enabled by default.<\/p>\n This means that, unlike previously, users will not see a badge when they receive a message from muted WhatsApp chats and groups.<\/p>\n Vacation Mode<\/strong><\/p>\n WhatsApp is also working on a vacation mode, which will stop archived chats being un-archived if users have muted them.<\/p>\n WhatsApp currently automatically reverses archived chats once a new message is received from that chat.<\/p>\n LinkedIn<\/strong><\/p>\n Another feature which will arrive soon is the ability to link a WhatsApp account to external services like LinkedIn.<\/p>\n \u201cThe feature appears mainly developed for WhatsApp Business, but some references were found in the normal WhatsApp app too. It\u2019s not available yet for both apps,\u201d WABetaInfo said.<\/p>\n WhatsApp is working on a vacation mode and has enabled a silent mode for Android users.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":168223,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_facebook_post_id":"","_sma_instagram_post_id":"","_sma_threads_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[2594],"class_list":["post-281035","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-software","tag-whatsapp"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281035"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=281035"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281035\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":281041,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/281035\/revisions\/281041"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/168223"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=281035"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=281035"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=281035"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Now read: How to save data in WhatsApp<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
