WhatsApp to let Users Block Someone Straight From Chat Notifications: WhatsApp is soon going to introduce a feature that will help block messages from unknown numbers on the platform. With the help of this new feature, the user will be able to block unknown numbers very easily. It is being told that WhatsApp's parent company Meta is working on one of its block shortcut features. In this new feature, the user will get the option to block any unknown number from the chat notification.
Block unknown number
According to the report of WaBetaInfo, a website that tracks most of the features and updates of WhatsApp, the instant messaging app WhatsApp is preparing to introduce a special shortcut option. By clicking on this new option, the other user can be blocked directly from the chat notification itself. According to the report, this option will appear only when the WhatsApp user receives a message from an unknown number in the chat box. There will also be some limitations to this option. Many times while replying to the close ones included in his contact list, the user mistakenly blocks them.
You can also get the option of the block without opening the chatbox.
According to the information, WhatsApp is also working on other methods to deal with chat messages coming from unknown numbers and crack down on those untrusted contacts. In another report from the tracking website WaBetaInfo, it has been told that WhatsApp's parent company Meta is working on another block shortcut feature. With the help of this new feature, without opening the message, the user will get the option to block the message received from that unknown number from the chat list itself.
WaBetaInfo had given information about working on the caption feature in another report. The tracking website told about the keep message feature that WhatsApp is preparing to expand its disappearing feature. Actually, with the help of the disappearing feature, the user used to send any chat for a certain time. But by giving the option of keeping message to the user from Meta, it is expected to get the option to save and keep the message shared during the conversation under the disappearing feature.
