WhatsApp's desktop application users are now able to search for recent groups by entering the name of a contact who is also a member of the group. The most recent stable WhatsApp Desktop version will soon get the feature. This feature will make it much simpler to locate a group with a unique name or unusual characters. Some users have already noticed the change, and it is anticipated that other users will do so in the upcoming days.
The functionality is meant to make using WhatsApp easier for people who run many groups or are a part of many. Users no longer need to memorise the names of various groups because they may search for the groups using the names of contacts who are members of those groups.
According to WABetaInfo, a feature tracker, the feature will work with WhatsApp desktop versions 2.2245.9 and later. WABetaInfo was the source of the initial information that the feature was being made available to users.
According to reports, WhatsApp, which is owned by Meta, is the most popular messaging programme, with over two billion users in more than 100 countries.
The end-to-end encrypted platform contends with other apps like WeChat and Telegram.
With time, WhatsApp has added helpful services to its platform, such as the capacity to send money to other users directly from a chat. The messaging service is also developing numerous less significant but nonetheless helpful app improvements.
Polls and "Communities," a feature that enables users to have many groups under a single roof to organise group talks, were recently added to the messaging app.
According to the feature tracker, WhatsApp is also working on giving eight of the app's emoji a new layout and hopes to release 21 additional emojis that are presently under development. According to a recent report from WABetaInfo, three giant heart emoji would be made available in a future update of WhatsApp beta for Android.
