WhatsApp for iOS will enable the user to pin messages in groups and set the timeline accordingly. Also, the company has added a connection health for video call feature to check on the real-time quality.
WhatsApp, a Meta-owned instant messaging platform has started rolling out two new and important features for iOS users. The new pin messages and check connection health for video calls will enable the Apple devices.
As per the WABetaInfo report, the official changelog accompanying WhatsApp’s 23.25.79 update on iOS, the users will now be able to pin messages in groups. This feature could be used for all the current members so that they could check their connection health during a video call.
About the Pin Messages
The ‘pin messages’ feature will enable the users to get precise control over the duration- which means a message will remain prominently displayed in their chats. The iOS users could use three different durations to set the Pin message in the group- 24 hours, 7 days and 30 days according to their preference.
iOS users will also get the flexibility for dismissing a pinned message at any time- even before the chosen duration, the report stated.
Connection health
Users can further get started with checking connection health during a video call by simply long-pressing their tile to reveal the real-time VC feedback based on the quality of their video call connection.
The report says, “If you don’t have one of these features, note that some accounts may receive them over the coming weeks, as indicated in the official changelog.”
