Another new function is now being added to the well-known, global instant messaging software WhatsApp. Users will now be able to communicate themselves using the messaging platform after this upgrade, much like how it is currently allowed in apps like Telegram.
Before this upgrade, you had to make a group for yourself on WhatsApp in order to send yourself a message. To initiate a new chat, users can, however, select themselves from the contact list using this capability. As a result, you may now transmit messages, URLs, stickers, and other content that is personalized for you.
Even though texting oneself may seem strange, many individuals do it to save crucial data and make personal notes that can be quickly accessed later on another device. The most recent version of WhatsApp is currently rolling out this capability to all users after it was tested using the beta version of the program for the iPhone.
That's not all, though. Other recent additions to WhatsApp include the option to search for messages by date, drag-and-drop capability for media sharing, and an undo button for deleted messages, according to BGR.
This can be seen as exciting news for people who need to make a note on the go or need to transfer data from one device to another. I know that I have certainly texted myself before with the likes of Google Voice for those said reasons.
Will you be using this new feature?
