WhatsApp's upcoming feature will help you manage contacts, groups
WhatsApp is set to introduce a new feature in an upcoming Android update, that will allow users to create custom lists for better contact management. This feature will enable users to organize both people and groups into personalized lists, which can be named and decorated with emojis. The goal is to enhance communication efficiency by allowing users to group and manage their interactions more effectively, thus facilitating targeted content sharing and improved organization.
Custom lists to enhance content sharing
The new lists feature is expected to significantly improve how users organize their contacts and group chats. Similar to the existing labels on WhatsApp Business, this feature will provide a more versatile tool for categorizing conversations. Unlike labels, specific to business accounts, the custom lists will be available to all users, potentially streamlining organization process across both personal and professional contexts. There are indications that WhatsApp may eventually replace these labels with the more versatile list system in both apps.
The feature is under development
WhatsApp is introducing the new feature in its latest beta update for Android, version 2.24.18.9, available through the Google Play Beta Program. Currently under development, further details on the implementation of the lists feature are still forthcoming.
