WhatsApp has a “read later” function
Source: Heise.de added 14th Jan 2021WhatsApp should have a function that can also be used to mute chats. Conversations can be moved to a “Read Later” category. In the Chats tab, the corresponding button will then be visible at the top: If you click on it, you can see the muted chats.
The Read later function is documented at WABetaInfo and is intended to replace and expand the archiving of chats. If a chat is currently in the archive, the user will continue to be informed about new incoming messages and the chat will be automatically moved from the archive back to the main chat area.
Archive function on WhatsApp In order not to be disturbed by certain chats, there was previously only the option to mute them: This means that individual chats can be used for 8 hours, 1 week or forever acoustic notifications are switched off. The chat is then still visible in the regular list of chats and the number of new messages is displayed.
The new “Read later” – Function is in beta version 2. 21 2.2. in front. It is unclear when the function will be available in the major version. Temporarily it should be possible to switch off this new function: Then the chat is moved from the Read-later collection to the list of main chats when a new message arrives.
Criticism of WhatsApp Whatsapp was recently criticized because the service forced acceptance of its new data protection policy, which states that data will be passed on to other Facebook services . The possibility of passing on applies with the restriction that these may not be used for advertising, but for analysis purposes. The messages themselves are still end-to-end encrypted, it’s about the metadata.
