WhatsApp has made it easy for users to pin important messages in chats and offers quick access to information. According to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, users can pin up to three messages from a conversation from the previous pinned messages feature.
WhatsApp will allow users to not only pin messages, but even media or polls that can stay at the top of the chat for 24 hours, 7 days or even a whole month. If one message is pinned, it will appear as a chat banner, but if there are more than one, then the banner will show how many messages have been pinned, with the most recent at the top.
To pin messages, users will simply need to tap on the message and select “pin” from the drop-down options that appear and choose the length of time for which the message should be pinned. Messages can be turned off in the same way.
