‘Mute’ button comes in WhatsApp Android app, this is how it will work…

Last week it was reported that testing of ‘Mark as Read’ and ‘Mute’ buttons has started on WhatsApp. After the arrival of these features, users will be able to take necessary action from the notifications panel itself when a new WhatsApp message arrives. Now this instant messaging platform of Facebook has activated the mute button on its latest WhatsApp Android beta app. This button will become active in notifications as soon as you receive more than 51 messages from a contact. On the other hand, WhatsApp is reported to be adding sticker preview to start testing stickers on its platform. It is worth noting that for the first time in Facebook’s F8 developer conference, information was given that stickers will soon be brought on WhatsApp.

Talking about the mute button in WhatsApp, Android users can use it if they receive more than 51 messages from any contact at a time. With its help, you will be able to mute the messages of that user and to do this you will not even have to open WhatsApp. This will be possible from the notifications panel only. It is found next to the ‘Reply To’ button in the notification panel.

However, Tech News by Careers Ready found that this button is also present on the new WhatsApp beta version. We could use this feature on WhatsApp beta version 2.18.218. The latest beta version can be downloaded from Google Play.

The mute button has been made available to everyone using the WhatsApp beta Android app. But Mark as Red Button has not been released for beta testers yet. WhatsAppBetaInfo claims that with the help of Mark as Read button, users can red mark any message from the notification panel itself. There will be no need to open WhatsApp for this also.

The sticker preview has been released by WhatsApp along with the rollout of the mute button. According to WABetaInfo, this is a part of WhatsApp beta version 2.18.218, but the stickers will be made available to common users in the coming time. It is also said that information about the updated sticker pack will be given through a green dot on the ‘+’ button. Apart from this, there will be an update button with the help of which users will be able to download any sticker pack at once with a single tap.

WABetaInfo’s tweets Two sticker packs are visible. These are Bibimbap Friends and Unchi & Rollie. It is possible that these may be part of the initial launch. It’s possible that stickers on WhatsApp will be brought directly from Facebook Messenger. After all, both the apps are from the same company.
