1. Mark as Unread
With the upcoming update, Android users will soon be able to mark messages as unread even after reading them.
To be clear, this feature does not make it appear as if you have not read the message yet, and your messages will appear as read to senders even after you mark them as unread.
Instead, it can be used to highlight messages so you can get back to them later. Also, marking a message as unread will not change the order of conversations on the app.
2. Custom notifications
WhatsApp is bringing its whole set of custom options, which are available only for the whole app at present, for individual contacts.
For example, if you want to set a specific ringtone for a contact, you can select any song from your playlist, so you know the messages and calls are from that particular person even without looking at your smartphone.
Similarly, you can set notification light colours, separate call and message ringtones, enable or disable vibrations and pop-up notifications for each contact.
