We have to admit that WhatsApp hasn’t discovered the wheel (other services like Telegram have for a long time), but it is certainly better that it arrives now than never. The service will soon post search for posts by date in their conversations.
We are not talking about a rumor or leaks: the function is already present in the beta version of WhatsApp and therefore it is a matter of a short time before we have it everywhere. Let’s see how it will work on the iPhone.
Do not look for the what but the when
The idea of searching by date is that we can locate a message not only by what it said in its text (perhaps we don’t remember exactly), but also by for the day it was sent. Our colleagues from Xataka Móvil were able to access the new function, which includes a button just above the keyboard in the chat search interface:
This will be particularly useful in groups of messages with a lot of activity, or also when we are looking for a message that we sent a long time ago (and we do not remember it very well) but we know well the day that we sent it. have sent.
Meta hasn’t confirmed any concrete release date for it, but in matter of weeks maybe already part of the stable and final version. The only thing we can do is try to have the latest version of WhatsApp for iOS so that the launch does not surprise us.
