Here are 4 amazing new features of the new version of the app:

So next time you call your friend, you needn’t worry about data. The new version of Whatsapp reduces your data consumption.
In menu settings, under Chats and Calls menu, there is an option Low Data Usage. Click on it and save data while calling via Whatsapp.
Mute individual contacts
Muting group conversation is a passé now. You can mute individual contact as well in the new update. You can actually get rid of that bugging acquaintance who keeps on pinging for no reason.
Just check the Mute bar in the ‘About’ menu. Slide the Mute bar to the right and you can see for how much time you want to mute the chat: 8 hours, a week, or a year.
Mark as Unread

The new version enables you to unread even after you have read them. 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.Advertisement
