San Francisco: WhatsApp is reportedly testing a self-messaging feature that will allow users to send messages to themselves.
The feature is currently being tested on its beta apps for Androids and iOS, reported WABetaInfo. The small test feature called "messages with yourself" is now available to a select group of beta testers following the release of the WhatsApp beta for the Android 2.22.24.2 update.
This could be a new favourite among users as many prefer saving information or ideas by sending it to a trusted contact. This is another version of typing on the notes app which used to be popular. Now, people prefer saving information on one of the most used apps on their phones, WhatsApp.
Some beta testers found that WhatsApp is now highlighting the chat by adding 'message yourself' once the pp is updated. In the android system, WhatsApp will have a new chat option called "Me (You)" that will allow users to send messages to themselves. This can also be used to transfer files between devices.
Until the feature is available to everyone, the same result can be achieved by using the wa.me (Click to Message link) or by creating a group in which you are the only participant.
