WhatsApp has introduced a new feature that allows users to easily pin important messages within chats, providing quick access to vital information. Meta Chief Mark Zuckerberg announced that users can now pin up to three messages within a conversation, building upon the previous pinned message feature.
With this update, WhatsApp users can not only pin text messages but also media files or polls, ensuring that crucial content remains easily accessible at the top of the chat. Users have the flexibility to choose the duration for which a message stays pinned, whether it’s for 24 hours, 7 days, or even a month.

When a single message is pinned, it will be displayed as the chat banner. However, if multiple messages are pinned, the banner will indicate the number of pinned messages, with the most recent appearing at the top.
To pin a message, users simply need to press the desired message and select the ‘pin’ option from the drop-down menu. They can also specify the duration for which the message should be pinned. Similarly, messages can be unpinned using the same process.
This new feature enhances the usability of WhatsApp by allowing users to prioritize and access important information more efficiently within their conversations.
