WhatsApp has rolled out a highly anticipated update: message drafts. This new feature ensures you don’t overlook or forget to send important messages.
Now, any chat containing unsent text will display a prominent green “Draft” label alongside a preview of the unfinished message. This serves as a helpful nudge, making it easier to locate and complete your incomplete conversations when you open the app—unless you choose to ignore them.
Additionally, these unsent drafts will appear at the top of your chat list, making access effortless. There’s no longer need to scroll endlessly through past chats in search of unfinished replies. According to reports by Engadget, this feature has been made available worldwide.
