WhatsApp is reportedly working on a feature we all have been missing in the messaging app to rid ourselves from constant notifications on annoying family, college, and office groups that do not concern us. A “Mute Always” function is in works that will give you the option to permanently mute a chat or a group rather than muting it every time for eight hours, a week, or a year.
According to WhatsApp beta tracker WABetainfo, the 2.20.197.3 update will replace the “one year” option with “Always” when you try to mute a particular chat or a group. After enabling this feature you will able to receive and read messages on these chats or groups but your smartphone won’t buzz every time there is a new message.
Multi-device support has also been spotted on the beta version for a while now According to the rumours, this feature on the messaging platform may be called “Linked devices”. A total of four devices can be linked to a single WhatsApp account. A new user interface is in works to accommodate the long-awaited feature.
The next update may also feature a huge number of new emojis. As many as 138 emojis can be seen in the new update.
