With more than a billion users now, WhatsApp, the world's most popular instant messaging platform, has slowly been turning from a barebones chat app, into a more sophisticated endeavor that is almost (but not quite) on par with the best out there in terms of features.

Just recently it added rich link previews, like on Facebook Messenger or Viber, the ability to star messages to its Android app, and a bunch of Unicode emojis. These features have been in the beta versions you can download only from WhatsApp's own site first, and then, as usual, got rolled into the official app update over at the app stores.

Thе sheer popularity of the WhatsApp messenger means that there are plenty of folks that are just getting on the platform, or want to know more how to use it. To match those needs, one kind soul has compiled a handy infographic with basic and not-so-basic WhatsApp tips and tricks for a handy reference, check it out below.
