Tue 12  September 2023:

On Android, Meta-owned WhatsApp is apparently working on a new feature called “filter groups chat” to give users more control over their discussions, making it easier to organize and prioritize their messages.

The new feature, according to WABetaInfo, will allow users to see a list of their groups while excluding individual chats.

The “Personal” filter has also been renamed “Contacts” to better distinguish between individual and group chats, as the “Personal” filter formerly encompassed groups and communities.

The new “Contacts” filter, on the other hand, will only include individual conversations.

Furthermore, the “Business” filter has been removed, the report said.

As users often join multiple groups for various purposes, such as work, family, friends, or hobbies — this dedicated filter will let them quickly access and manage their group conversations, knowing that this filter exclusively includes group chats.

The feature to filter group chats is under development and it will be available in a future update of the app, according to the report.

Meanwhile, WhatsApp is reportedly rolling out a multi-account feature with a new interface for the app settings to beta testers on Android.

Users will be able to add an extra account on the same device straight within WhatsApp Settings with this multi-account capability.
