WhatsApp will have the option to change the status of messages

WhatsApp is working on a very interesting new feature that will allow us to know the status of the messages we have received, and change it to marked as read. Something very similar to what we can do with the e-mail, and that lets us know that we should look and what not at a glance.

This new feature looks like it is in the testing phase, because from WhatsApp it has asked to users who work with the instant messaging service prepare the corresponding translations of the new features that will have release soon. Specifically, it’s have been leaked requests to translate terms like “mark as read” or “mark as unread“.

This new feature will not affect to those who sends the message, because changing the state of those messages is only an option and it will be a function which will be available in the list of chats and from making a swipe to the right of the screen to display the function as if we were to delete a conversation.

From what has been leaked to the network, this new option to change the status of received messages begin its expansion into WhatsApp users who use the iPhone, although it is normal to think that your arrival at the Android platform will be very quick.
