New update You can now manage your contacts even more easily in WhatsApp
WhatsApp has introduced a major improvement in contact management that allows users to organize and sync their contacts more efficiently.
WhatsApp has introduced a major new feature that makes managing contacts much easier. Users can now synchronize their contacts across devices, which is a long-awaited feature. Previously, it was only possible to add new contacts directly from the cell phone by entering a phone number or scanning a QR code. This restriction is now a thing of the past.
From now on, new contacts can also be added via the browser version of WhatsApp on the PC or via the native app on Windows devices. These contacts are then available on all devices, which makes using the messenger more flexible. Another practical new feature is the ability to save contacts directly in WhatsApp on the cell phone, independently of the phone's address book. These contacts are automatically synchronized with the cloud.
Particularly useful if you lose your phone
This function is particularly useful for users who share their devices with other people or manage several WhatsApp accounts for different purposes. If the device is changed or the phone is lost, the contacts saved in WhatsApp can be easily restored. It also makes it easier to manage contacts, as they can now be saved by the user's name. This eliminates the need to enter a phone number in order to send a message. The developers emphasize that usernames on WhatsApp provide additional security.
The new features are available to both iOS and Android users and will be rolled out in the coming days. Another recently introduced feature, which is exclusively available for iOS users, allows WhatsApp chats to be accessed directly from the iPhone home screen via a widget. Users can choose between recently used chats, favorites, pinned chats or the most frequently contacted people.
