Facebook and messaging app WhatsApp can soon launch Vacation
Mode for Android users. The latest Android beta update has revealed the new
features of WhatsApp. According to the WhatsApp tracking website WABetaInfo, work
on these features has been started again by WhatsApp, which WhatsApp had
abandoned testing.
What will be the benefit for users
WhatsApp's Vacation Mode will provide an option to mute
archive chat. Actually, at present, a new message in the archive chat gets a
popup of notifications, which can be muted after the arrival of Vacation Mode.
Meaning, notifications will not pop up when a new message arrives in the
archive chat.
A new dedicated section will be available for vacation mode
WhatsApp’s new update has available through the Google Play
Beta program. WhatsApp v2.20.199.8 Beta has been released for Android.
According to the WABetaInfo report, a new dedicated section will be provided
for the Vacation Mode, which will provide an option to select different
parameters. With the new feature going live, Archive Chat will go to the top of
your chat list, tapping on it will open a separate dedicated section. This new
button will be called a notification.
There will be two options in the new notification
In this notification, two new options Notify New Messages
and Auto-hide inactive chat will be found. From here, users will be able to
mute the chat when new messages arrive. If the user chooses the disabled option
of Notify New Messages, then even if a new message arrives in the archive chat,
it will reach the archive directly. On selecting other Auto-hide inactive
chats, an extension of Vacation Mode will appear and if you enable it, the 6
month old chat will automatically arrive in the archive.
