Whatsapp will prioritize username in chats

WABetaInfo shared from its blog account that an innovation for WhatsApp Android users is being tested. In the novelty in the testing phase, the username will be placed before the number in the messages from the numbers that are not registered. Thanks to the innovation, WhatsApp users will be able to understand in a shorter time who sent the message from numbers that are not registered in the directory. Of course, for this, the user must first be registered on WhatsApp under his own name.

WhatsApp will prioritize username over phone numbers

WhatsApp; When there is a number that users have not saved in chats, it first displays the number in bold and the name in thin form next to it. The platform will now turn this situation around with the 2.22.25.10 WhatsApp beta update for Android.

In short, if the number is not registered in the directory, the person who sent the message will first have the WhatsApp name and then the number. In this way, WhatsApp users will understand in a shorter time from whom the message of the person whose number is not saved in the contacts. In other words, priority will be given to the username instead of the number on WhatsApp.

The innovation in WhatsApp is expected to be especially useful in group chats. Because the platform recently increased the number of participants of the groups to 1024 users. In this case, it becomes very difficult to understand who sent the messages in groups with high participants.

In addition, the instant communication application has recently started to test showing the profile photo in group chats. Today, this innovation has come to many WhatsApp users. Again, this feature will help large groups to quickly understand who sent the message.
