WhatsApp is now testing a clearer solution to let you already know what occurs if you mute group chats. This has been noticed by a number of folks within the newest beta replace for Android.
As you possibly can see from the screenshot beneath, the brand new function allows you to select between receiving notifications for all group messages or just for “Highlights”, which embrace @mentions, replies, and “different related messages”. That is clearly meant to make giant and really lively group chats extra manageable for folks.
The fascinating factor is that “Highlights” are what you may get even at present within the non-beta app if you “mute” group notifications. The brand new function solely tries to raised describe what’s occurring, it would not really change any performance.
The default notification setting if you be a part of a bunch is set by the group’s dimension, so bigger teams will default to “Highlights” anyway, whereas for smaller teams you can be notified for every little thing.
