WhatsApp revives testing long-lost chat filters feature to help you organize your chaos

As you can see in the screenshot, beta testers might spot a new row with chat filters at the top of their conversation list. These filters let users sort their chats by displaying only specific types. WhatsApp is introducing a filter specifically for showing unread conversations and another one for listing all group chats.

Earlier, the app experimented with filters for Personal and Business chats, but it appears these filters have been shelved for now. It's worth noting that the filters are situated under the top app bar, so it might require some scrolling down the chats list to notice if this feature is available for your account.

Chat filtering helps users organize their conversations, making it easier to find and access specific chats without scrolling through a long list of messages. This streamlined approach makes communication management more efficient for users.

And talking about managing communications, the Meta-owned app is also working on a new feature that will allow users to pin more chats at the top of the app. Additionally, a new feature to indicate end-to-end encrypted conversations might be coming soon, further enhancing the user experience.
