WhatsApp recently introduced a new feature in the beta version for Android, with the aim of simplify message management incomplete in chats.
Such a measure, yes available on iOS and on desktop, it also reaches Android users via the update to beta version 2.24.20.24, which you can download from the Google Play Store.
Now you can view the drafts directly from the chat list, without having to manually open each individual conversation to check for any unsent messages.
Drafts of WhatsApp messages also on Android
To begin, let’s take a look at the screenshot published in a recent post by WABetaInfowho immediately discovered the news in WhatsApp Beta for Android 2.24.20.24:
In the past, users had to go into each chat to check if they had left incomplete messages – a particularly time-consuming task, especially for anyone who has to manage a large number of conversations. Thanks to this new feature, every WhatsApp chat containing an unsent message will be marked with the“Draft” label. This will give users a way to quickly identify which conversations still need to be completed.
To check if the function is already active on your WhatsApp account, just write a message in any conversation and, without sending it, return to the chat list. If the update has been completed, the draft label will be shown next to the chat with the incomplete message, which can then be reviewed, possibly corrected and subsequently sent.
For now, the innovation is only available to some beta testers who have installed the latest update for Android, but WhatsApp has announced that the improved draft management will be progressively distributed to an ever-increasing number of users in the coming days. Furthermore, we remind you to check the basic requirements of your device: in fact, as already reported in recent days, starting from October WhatsApp it will no longer be usable on these iPhones and Android smartphones.
