Organize Like a Pro
As the year ends, bid adieu to digging through a sea of messages to find the one person you need. With Whatsapp’s Custom Lists, you can group contacts based on your needs—say, a "Work Team" list for colleagues or a "Family Circle" for relatives. And, with Favorites, you can pin your go-to chats for instant access without the clutter. These features save time and keep your conversations laser-focused.
Stay connected like never before
Planning and connecting just got an upgrade. With Whatsapp’s Events feature, you can create events, send out invites, and track RSVPs—all within the app. Need to host a virtual meetup? You can video calls with up to 32 participants, complete with fun Filters and customisable Backgrounds to make every call more lively. Plus, improved noise cancellation and sharper video resolution ensure clear conversations.
Stay in the loop with what matters most
Whatsapp Channels make it easier to follow your favourite topics and creators. Browse through categories to discover Channels that match your interests, from news and entertainment to hobbies and more. Found something exciting? Share updates directly to your chats or Status with a tap, keeping your circle informed and engaged.
Let your creativity flow
You can now transform your photos into custom stickers to add a personal flair to your chats or indulge in GIPHY to find the perfect animated sticker for every mood. And for an extra touch of personality, Voice Updates for Channels lets you share your thoughts in your own voice, making your updates more dynamic and engaging.
