Instant messaging application WhatsApp is working on a new feature that will make it easier for its users to search for a message.
As per ANI, last year, the Facebook-owned application introduced a new design of the contact information section for Android users, who were resgistered in the beta program.
Now, the company has added a search shortcut to that redesigned page for a few Android beta testers. The shortcut was rolled out with a new update through the Google Play Beta Program. The update brings the version of the app up to 2.22.6.3.
With the new shortcut feature, users will be able to make searches straight from the info page of personal contacts and group chats. Currently, the feature is only rolling out for some testers.
WhatsApp has been working on a host of features to enhance the user experience.
The messenger recently improved the archaic, unrefined method for sharing uncompressed media files by introducing proper previews when images and videos are shared as documents.
