It’s undeniable that in recent times, WhatsApp has in many ways become quickly catching up with its competitors. Yes, it still lags behind some of the popular messengers, but the developers are constantly testing new features and some of them are really noteworthy. At the moment, WhatsApp is working on several features at once, one of which will allow you to instantly block the interlocutor without even launching the application.
According to the WABetaInfo resource, using the new function, messenger users will be able to block unwanted interlocutors directly from the notification. In this case, you do not need to launch the application, enter the chat, click on the three dots (menu), select “More”, and from there block the specified contact. Now the developers have added the corresponding option to the quick response menu. Here’s what it looks like:
This feature has been seen in the WhatsApp 2.23.2.5 beta, and it’s unclear how soon it will make it to the stable build of the messenger. Being able to quickly block a contact through a notification is definitely a very useful feature given the amount of spam on WhatsApp.
