7. Change the Background
People have been using WhatsApp since 2010. And you have noticed that developers use the same cartoon doodles background image which I found is really weird. But thank god we have an option to change that.
Just go to the Options. Click on settings, open chats and there you will find a wallpaper option which you can choose to change the background of any chat you want.
8. Search and Starred Messages
I have seen my lots of friends like if they want some number or mail id on WhatsApp, they went all the way back to the chats and then scrolling it down and down to find that number or mail ID.
It feels you are finding needle in the grass. To save the time and to make it faster, just use the Search option to find the important number and ID, OR Just use the Starred Message option which will allow you find the chat later if it’s important to you. To use these features, follow the step below.
Search: Open the chat > Options > Search and there, enter the phrase or number you are looking for.
Starred Message: Open the Chat > Long Press on the Individual Message that you want to save > Click on the Star icon in the top bar of the Screen. To see those messages, just click on options and select Starred Messages.
