- WhatsApp has renamed the chat filters feature to Lists and now allows you to make custom lists.
- This means you can sort your chats by friends, work, school, or any other filters you can think of.
- The feature is rolling out now and everyone should have it in the next few weeks.
WhatsApp introduced chat filters a while back, allowing you to quickly sift through your chats by groups, unread, and favorites. Now, the platform has introduced long-awaited custom filters and renamed the feature.
WhatsApp revealed the Lists feature on its blog, and this indeed allows you to make custom filters for your chats. An accompanying screenshot (seen below) gives examples of custom lists for neighbors, work, and friends.
