Instant messaging app WhatsApp (WhatsApp) is constantly getting new features. But it is not necessary for common users to remember all these features. There are many such amazing features on WhatsApp, which we do not even know about. Today, we are telling you about 5 features of WhatsApp or say tricks, which may be simple but can prove to be of great use for you.
Make blue tick disappear
Blue tick is a feature of great work. Through this, it is known that the person has seen your message or not. However, it also becomes a cause of trouble when you are unable to reply even after viewing the message. To avoid such a situation, it is better to keep the blue tick closed. For this, you have to open WhatsApp and go to Settings and then Account. After this, you will see the option of Read Receipts by going to Privacy. Turning it off will turn off the blue tick feature.
Hide profile picture
On WhatsApp, we all keep our photos as profile picture. But no one would want to see that picture even unknown people. Therefore, this feature has been given on WhatsApp so that people can see the photos which are included in your contact list. To activate it, you have to open the settings of WhatsApp and go to the account and then click on Privacy. Here you will see the option of Profile photo. In this, you are given three options Everyone, My Contacts, and Nobody. By choosing My Contacts, your photo will be visible only to the people in the contact.
Private reply to group message
Many times a situation arises when we do not want to reply to any message in the group. For this, the private reply feature has been provided in WhatsApp. For this, you have to open the group and long press on the message that you want to reply to. Then you have to tap on the three-dot menu above. Here you will see the option of Reply privately. Selecting this will reply to the messages in the group in private chat.
Picture and video will not download itself
If you do not want the pictures and videos that come on WhatsApp itself are not downloaded, then a separate setting has also been given for this. For this, you have to open WhatsApp settings and go to Storage and Data. The option of Media Auto-Download will appear here. You can turn off auto downloading for both mobile data and wifi
Block whatsapp contact
What often happens on WhatsApp is that we need to block a contact. After doing this, neither of you can have any conversation on WhatsApp, nor will you see each other's profile picture. For this, you have to open WhatsApp and go to the person you want to block. Click on the menu here and go to More. Here you will see the option of Block.
