WhatsApp for Android with new features

WhatsApp for Android beta updated to the new version 2.12.462, an update that adds translations to new functions added yesterday. These new features include the ability to keep starred messages when clearing a chat, function to edit or share a contact from the contact information and function to see all files and links that we shared with a contact.

To keep starred messages and not delete them when clearing a chat or all chats, just we have to check the box that gives us that opportunity. Remind you to clean an individual chat we have to go from the chat we want clean to “Menu> More> Clear chat”, however to clear all chat from the home screen WhatsApp will go to “Menu> Settings> Chats and calls > Chat History > Clear all chats “.

Another of the new features added WhatsApp for Android is the ability to edit or share a contact, for it from the chat that contact go to “Menu> View contact” and click on the menu button that appears (the three vertical dots) . Now we’ll see the new options share and edit, in addition to what was already “View in address book”.

Finally, another new feature that has been added is the ability to view all files and links that we shared with a contact, so we must go from the chat contact, to “Menu> Media”, and from here us two tabs from which we can see both the shared files are displayed as links.
