WhatsApp Improved Experience With Least Known Tips and Tricks

#WhatsApp #App – WhatsApp Improved Experience With Least Known Tips and Tricks – WhatsApp has become a powerful communication tool which keeps gaining users every day. Many of them have been using this application from its beginnings (2009) and they witnessed the evolution of WhatsApp and embraced the new features. But for a new user, WhatsApp can be a fascinating “play ground”, with many “corners” waiting to be explored. We’re talking about using features and options that can improve your experience on WhatsApp, so here are a few tips and tricks that you can use.

Disable the last seen status

If you’re a person who doesn’t like letting others know you were online, because you have some stalkers in your list of contacts, then you can turn off the last seen status and you won’t be bothered again with questions like: “Why didn’t you stop by to say Hi to me?” You will need to go to your App Menu (Android) or Settings (iOS), then select Account > Privacy and turn off the Last seen status. By disabling it, you will hide from your contacts, but you won’t see their Last seen status either. In addition, you can disable the read receipts option, which lets others know you’ve read their messages.

Log into your account from your computer

WhatsApp added a Web feature which allows the users to chat from their computers using one of these browsers: Firefox, Chrome or Opera. Unfortunately, this feature isn’t available for the iOS users, due to “Apple platform limitations”, but on Android, BlackBerry 10 and Windows Phone, this feature works like a charm. The users need to access the web.whatsapp.com website and scan the QR code with their phone’s camera. Also, they need to keep WhatsApp running on their smartphones while chatting from their computers.

Home screen shortcuts

Most likely, you want to have quick access to your frequently used conversations directly from the home screen. WhatsApp allows you to set up home screen shortcuts by going to the chat with your favorite contact(s), opening the Menu from the top right button and selecting More and Add shortcut.
