Now, here's what you need to know about the change.
The
Messenger app WhatsApp
* is a new
feature
expands.
Users have
wanted this for some time.
All information about the new option for
notifications
.
Munich - For some time now,
users have wanted
more options when setting their
notifications
.
One
function
was particularly requested and has now been integrated into the
messenger app
.
WhatsApp is known for constantly developing its app - now you can mute chats forever.
WhatsApp integrates new settings for notifications - finally it stays calm
Until recently, you could
only mute your
notifications from
individual and group chats
for a limited amount of time: eight hours, a week, and a year.
Now it is possible that there will be peace forever.
This reports Giga.
WhatsApp explains how you can set
your notifications
according to your own preferences:
How to get there:
Open the Messenger app and tap under “More options” (three superimposed points) on “Settings” and then on “Notifications”.
Option 1: Activate or deactivate the tones.
Option 2: choose the tones for notifications and calls.
Option 3: Adjust the duration of the vibration.
Option 4 (restricted): Activate or deactivate pop-up notifications.
Option 5: Choose the light color for the respective notification.
Option 6: Prioritize the notifications.
Enthusiasm for the new WhatsApp function - "I think I'm in heaven"
Many people probably know
the desire
to deactivate
notifications
permanently.
Group chats, in particular, usually don't do well.
A user wrote on Twitter: “If you have been added to a
group, first
mute
the notifications
.
So that it doesn't get too annoying. "
Another user expressed his aversion to the notifications from
group chats
as follows: "There is no WhatsApp group that is not worth muteing them."
ON WHATSAPP YOU CAN NOW MUTE GROUPS FOREVER I BELIEVE I AM IN HEAVEN 😍😍😍😍

A Twitter user bursts into
enthusiasm
because of the new setting
option for WhatsApp chats
.
“I think I'm in heaven,” she writes.
In response to her
joy
, she received a similarly enthusiastic exclamation: "My life has a purpose again!"
WhatsApp is constantly developing functions - but security gaps are also a problem again and again
Incidentally, status reports from contacts can also be muted.
In addition, WhatsApp announced a
new function
* that many users have longed for: the "self-destruction" of messages, photos and videos.
One can therefore assume that
will continue to
refine
the usability and functions of the
messenger app in the
future.
In addition, WhatsApp recently made
headlines
with a
security vulnerability
* - but how can you
prevent
the
error
?
And what role does a change of
phone number play
in the problem?
