A recent update to WhatsApp now allows users to pin up to three messages in each chat for quick access. This feature is designed to help users locate important messages more efficiently by keeping them at the top of the conversation. By tapping on a pinned message, users can instantly navigate to the full conversation thread.
Users have the flexibility to choose how long they want a message to remain pinned! Options are 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. The default duration is set to 7 days, providing a balance between visibility and clutter.
In group chats, administrators can specify whether all members or only fellow administrators have the authority to pin messages. This feature ensures that important information remains accessible while allowing for effective group communication management.
