New Delhi: WhatsApp on Monday announced the launch of the new feature 'Message Yourself' in India. The messaging platform, owned by Meta, said that the feature would arrive in weeks.
The feature is a 1:1 chat with oneself to share notes, reminders and updates. On WhatsApp, users can send notes, reminders, shopping lists, and other things to themselves in order to manage their to-do lists, a statement by the app said.
To use the new feature, open the WhatsApp application, create a new chat, then click on your contact at the top of the list and start messaging.
This feature will be available on Android and iPhone and will be rolled out to all users in the coming weeks," the company said.
Earlier this month, Meta Founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced 'Communities on WhatsApp' along with several new features like 32-person video calling, in-chat polls and groups with up to 1,024 users.
Zuckerberg said, "We're launching Communities on WhatsApp. It makes groups better by enabling sub-groups, multiple threads, announcement channels, and more. We're also rolling out polls and 32-person video calling too. All are secured by end-to-end encryption, so your messages stay private."
