A new sign on WhatsApp is attracting users’ attention. Behind that symbol there is a function to simplify everything.
WhatsApp it is an integral part of our daily life: we open it dozens of times a day, we respond to work messages, family chats, endless groups. Yet, even those who use it constantly may not have noticed a detail that recently appeared in the interface.
This is a simple “+” sign, discreet but far from banal. Its presence is not accidental and anticipates an important change in the way of organizing conversations.
The + sign and the new Whatsapp chat management
The “+” symbol has been added next to the WhatsApp filter tabs, the ones we already know as “All”, “To read”, “Favorites” and “Groups”. So far these filters have helped maintain a minimum amount of order, but with the constant increase in chats they are often no longer enough. And this is where the “+” sign comes into play. This feature allows you to create custom filtersradically transforming the organization of conversations. This is not just an aesthetic addition, but a tool designed to adapt WhatsApp to the needs of each user.
Thanks to this feature, every person can create a customized card. The user chooses the filter name and decides which chats to include. It is possible, for example, to separate work conversations from personal ones, or to collect all chats related to a specific project in a single section. This approach it offers a freedom that was previously missing. It is no longer WhatsApp that decides how chats should be organized, but the user himself. The result is one tidier screen and immediate access only to the conversations that are truly relevant at that moment.
Operation is intuitive. Once the feature is available on your device, just tap the “+” sign, give the new filter a name, and select the contacts or groups to include. There created tab will appear next to the default ones and may be modified at any time. It is a flexible system, designed to adapt to changes in daily life, without forcing the user into rigid solutions.
At the moment, this news has been released your iOS with version 2.24.21.82while for Android a precise date has not yet been communicated. Rolling release is a common strategy to monitor for issues before global deployment. The introduction of the “+” sign confirms the direction taken by WhatsApp: making the app increasingly customizable and oriented to the real habits of users.
