New Delhi, October 16: Meta-owned WhatsApp is reportedly working on a new feature called "search message by date", designed to make it easier for users to quickly search for messages shared on a specific date within their conversations. According to WABetaInfo, the company is developing a calendar button which will allow users to open a date picker panel to make it easier for users to search for a message shared on a specific date.

This feature is currently in development, and the company plans to release it for the web client in the future. According to the report, this feature will be beneficial to users because one of the most notable advantages is the improved capacity to retrieve specific texts from previous chats. BharatPe New Feature Update: Fintech Major Introduces 'Special World Cup' Feature on 'BharatPe Speaker' For Merchant Community During World Cup 2023.
