Whatsapp improved MESSAGING: adds new text formatting features
Whatsapp added four new Text formatting features to help users to communicate more effectively. To highlight and organise messages, users can now use bulleted and numbered lists, block quotes, and inline codes. This makes the messages more organised and easier to understand as it breaks the larger sections of text into something easier to read.
The features are in development phase, but they are present on Whatsapp for Android, iOS, Web, and Mac. They made the existing features like bold, strikethrough, and monospace to all Whatsapp users which was earlier available to limited users.
Below are the style syntax for these new features which can be used directly within a message:
BULLETED LISTS: If you place a "-" symbol at the start of your text, followed by a space. This will add bullet points to your messages to break information into things like shopping lists.
NUMBERED LISTS: Another listing format is by using numbers. To use this feature, add one or two digits followed by a period and a space- e.g.: "1.".
BLOCK QUOTES: Users can block quote text to highlight it and make it stand out in longer messages. Type the “>” symbol followed by a space before the text you wish to highlight to use this format.
INLINE CODE: A useful format for coders but also a good way of highlighting specific information in your text. Users need to wrap their text with the “`” symbol to use this format — `like this.`
All these features makes WhatsApp Messenger a more convenient application which improves messaging experience with each update.
