The person that many phone users message the most is themselves. Sometimes you find yourself without paper or a pen when you need to make a note. Some people would rather send a message to themselves, even if an app like Google Keep (Android, iOS) is great for these circumstances. Well, Whatsapp now supports texting yourself and you can also undo deleted messages.
Whatsapp now supports texting yourself: further details
Usually, that is, before Whatsapp now supports texting yourself, users who will want to text themselves will resort to creating Whatsapp groups and then adding themselves as a group member thus enabling them to save messages. But this could be a bit of inconvenience as who will want to go through the stress just to save a note he wouldn’t want to forget?
That’s why Whatsapp now supports texting yourself. WhatsApp users can now choose themselves as the sole recipient of a message they are sending through the app. The software displays a notification once you’ve finished typing the message you wish to send yourself, letting you know that it is end-to-end encrypted. If you don’t have numerous personalities, this might not be important. However, it does imply that WhatsApp or anybody else who isn’t you cannot view or hear the message.
By using iPhone users as beta testers, Meta is now making this feature available to all users. It may be downloaded for Android and is functional on the Pixel 6 Pro of an individual from PhoneArena running on the Android 13 QPR2 Beta 2.1.
As mentioned earlier, “Whatsapp now supports texting yourself while you can undo deleted messages”. After the upgrade, the “Delete for me” feature can be reversed to restore a message that was unintentionally deleted from your WhatsApp account. Send yourself a test message (which you can do right now) and then long-press the message to observe how this functions.
A pop-up will appear when you tap the trash can icon at the top of the screen. When you choose “Delete for me,” a bar with the words “Message erased for me” and the term “UNDO” will show up at the bottom of the screen. The notice will reappear if you tap it to reverse the deletion. So there you have it, two more features from the Meta boss, additions to the many others.
