WhatsApp has been working since last year on a so-called Vacation Mode s that, although it has appeared in different leaks based on the code of its beta version, has not yet seen the light of day in no final version of the application. However, WaBetaInfo has new information for us , as we can see on their website.

This mode will allow us to disconnect from some specific chats, such as those of our bosses, clients or colleagues , something that this functionality directly points to with its name. By archiving the corresponding chats with this function, we will ensure that do not automatically exit this state again when we receive a message from them.

While this is something that WhatsApp was already working on, has been the teleworking situation, to which the coronavirus pandemic has forced everyone, which has made the development start again, especially considering that instant messaging services such as Telegram or WhatsApp are the main form of communication between colleagues and bosses in this situation.

Anyway, it is unknown when this will reach the stable version of the application or if it really will, so we can only wait.
