WhatsApp will launch a new update that will hide the messages

WhatsApp will launch a new update that will hide the messages of the chat groups for as long as the user wants.

According to the WaBetaInfo portal, the popular instant messaging application designs an option to deactivate all messages and notifications of groups by simply configuring the status of them through the Holiday Mode.

The new update will silence the chats for a long time, as the user chooses, and can be archived to be activated again when desired.

Currently, regardless of notification settings, an archived conversation returns to the top of the chat list each time a new message is received. With the vacation mode, we can completely forget about a conversation.

It can be useful to pause work, not to have more interaction with annoying groups (but without leaving them) or even to hide a conversation from the list of chats.

The developers are working to make sure that the notifications related to those conversations disappear completely, without disturbing the user. In this way, when a new message arrives, the corresponding numerical alert that appears to indicate unread messages will not be incremented.
