- WhatsApp for Android version 2.24.25.29 beta tweaks how the reminders feature works.
- Previously limited to status updates, the option may soon nudge you about private messages you haven’t checked.
- Those disturbed by the repeated alerts can turn off the relevant toggle in WhatsApp’s notification settings.
