WHATSAPP WILL LET USERS TO EDIT, SAVE CONTACTS WITHOUT EXITING THE APP

Wed 12 Apr 2023:

Whatsapp finally introduced a brand-new feature that allows users to “manage contacts within the app.” Users of the new feature on Android devices will be able to add and edit contacts without ever leaving the app.

Within WhatsApp for Android, the new feature will enable the ability to add and edit contacts. Some beta testers using the most recent beta of Meta’s proprietary instant messaging system can now access it. According to the WABetaInfo report, the feature will soon be made available to more users in the upcoming days.

By opening the contact list in WhatsApp and choosing the “New Contact” option, the user will be able to see if the new feature is available on their devices.

The ability to add contacts without leaving WhatsApp is available if the “New contact” option is present.

Moreover, users can also add unknown numbers to their contacts list when they reach others on WhatsApp, without switching to the contacts app, said the report.

Meanwhile, the instant messaging app is reportedly developing a new feature, which will enable users to share their status updates to Facebook stories without leaving the app.

Users could share status updates to Facebook stories in the past, but they had to do so manually each time they made a new post.
