Big news on WhatsApp: lists are arriving. Thanks to this new feature, users of the instant messaging application will be able to categorize their conversations. For example, it will be possible to create a “Family” category and a “Friends” category.
If WhatsApp is a very practical application for communicating with our loved ones, its interface somewhat lacks clarity on certain aspects. An example? The page that presents all our discussions offers only four filtering options: “All”, “Unread”, “Favorites” and “Groups”.
But WhatsApp now has a solution to have a better overview of our different conversations: lists. Indeed, as WhatsApp explains on his bloglists allow you to categorize conversations. You will be able to create different categories such as: “Family”, “Friends”, “Neighbors” or even “Work”. These lists are customizable, and it is possible to integrate both individual discussions and discussion groups.
Once created, lists are displayed in the filter bar. Let us point out, however, that it does not seem possible to rank the lists in order of importance.
To create a list, simply press the “+” in the filter bar located at the top of the Discussions tab. When it comes to editing a list, simply long press on the list you want to edit.
WhatsApp says the lists are being rolled out and will be available to all users in the coming weeks.
