Something new never fails to show up on WhatsApp for users. The company has again taken up something cool that is being tested: the Message Reminder for iOS. This way, the user can be reminded through notifications on messages that important information just may get lost.
The First Question Would Definitely Be What The Message Reminder Is
At times, one might have messages demanding attention that he/she can hardly attend to. Then, after a bit of time, he/she may not even recall them. Well, now, there is no way one would forget- the Message Reminder. Upon the long-press of a selected message, it activates the "Remind Me" feature to set up with a reminder for those messages.
How Does It Work and How To Use
All it takes is just long-pressing on the intended message in the WhatsApp chat.
Select Remind Me from the displayed pop-out menu.
Under that are the once set times: 2 hr. , 8 hr. , 24 hr. , or custom.
At the time you set, your phone will ping with a notification with a preview of the message, text, image, or video.
In case the user does not need this reminder anymore, they can cancel this at any time.
WhatsApp User Benefits
Important messages will never go unnoticed again.
This will keep the information timely, whether either for an office job or a personal plan.
Works well with both group chats and personal chats.
While information is important sometimes, one may miss it on the account of the weightage on the appendage of messages at that point in time.
Promotes organization within conversations
Now you have "star messages" and a whole new type of time-based notification.
When Is It Coming?
For now, testing of the Message Reminder is being done for the iOS beta version. A few users with the updated version (25.25.74) have started testing, and it will gradually become available to all iOS devices.
In a similar style, Mono is currently testing the same feature under beta for Android. WhatsApp wants to ensure that this feature behaves consistently across both platforms.
Highlight
Reminders will work on the user's device.
To function propositionally, notification settings on the mobile must be turned on.
Even for the users who have this feature, they will not get to see reminders unless they have updated WhatsApp to the latest version.
The new message-reminding feature of the WhatsApp app for iOS users really goes one big way into enriching everyday chat experiences. Be it for professional chats, family chats, or arranging get-togethers, these message reminders will truly aid in getting timely reminders for their communication.
