New Chat Filters are being released by WhatsApp to help with message organisation. As per the instant messaging app, it should be easy to find the relevant chat on WhatsApp quickly and smoothly without having to browse through the complete chat list.
WhatsApp users can now quickly identify the important chats thanks to the latest upgrade which introduces new chat filters to avoid making you go through your entire inbox for that reason. All WhatsApp users are expected to receive the Chat Filters in the upcoming weeks as they roll out.
WhatsApp, owned by Meta, published a blog post announcing the release of Chat Filters which said, “Opening WhatsApp and finding the right conversation should feel quick, seamless, and simple. As people increasingly do more on WhatsApp, it’s more important than ever before to be able to get to your messages fast. That’s why today we’re launching new Chat Filters so you can do that without having to scroll through your full inbox.”
WhatsApp’s Chat Filters function provides three filters- All, Unread, and Groups choices to make message browsing more effective. The chat list will have them at the top.

All: The default view of all your messages.
Unread: You may see which conversations you need to catch up on or respond to by using the Unread option. To help you prioritise your responses, it displays messages that you have either marked as unread or not opened.
Groups: That being said, the Groups tab will compile all of your group chats into one location, which will make it simpler to locate your preferred ones—be they related to organising your upcoming trip or discussing your monthly family dinner. Additionally, this will display Communities’ subgroups.

“We believe filters will make it easier for people to stay organized and find their most important conversations and help navigate through messages more efficiently. We’ll continue to build more options to help you focus on what matters most. These are starting to roll out to users today, and will be available to everyone in the coming weeks,” the company stated.
