Webdesk: Another feature from Meta-owned WhatsApp improves user experience.
According to WaBetaInfo, the instant messaging software will soon let users add and edit contacts without leaving the app.
Manage contacts within the app is available for Android beta testers. It will be released to more users in the coming weeks.
WhatsApp had a shortcut to add contacts, but it opened the contacts app. Users can now add contacts without leaving the app.
Users can easily add contacts within the app by opening their WhatsApp contacts list and selecting “New contact”.
If consumers find the section in the screenshot, they can use this function. It lets you add and edit contacts in the app.
This feature lets users add or edit contacts in seconds without switching to the phone’s contacts.
“In addition, users won’t lose focus on their current activity on WhatsApp: if users had to switch apps to add a contact or edit its information, they might forget what they were doing in the conversation,” claimed the app-tracking website.
Some beta testers with the latest WhatsApp for Android beta can add and edit contacts in the app, and more will get it in the coming days.
