Indispensable WhatsApp Tips
31. Forward message
No sense to retype a message, or first have to copy and
paste, then there is the possibility to forward a message. By holding down a
message you will find an arrow at the top of the screen, with which you can
forward the message to another WhatsApp contact. In this bar, you will also find
the option to copy or delete a message.
32. WhatsApp and Dual SIM
When your phone gives you the option to use two SIM cards in
the device, you can only activate one of these for WhatsApp. So you choose
either the number of one SIM card or the number of the other SIM card. You
cannot switch between the numbers. Until a few months ago there were still
possibilities to bypass this to download a 'third party WhatsApp app', but
these have been banned by WhatsApp. Also, duo-sim, where you have two sim cards
for one number, is not supported by WhatsApp. Some smartphone brands do offer
an alternative for this.
33. Change manager of group call
If you have established a WhatsApp group, you may want to
transfer your manager stick to someone else in the group. You can also add
someone extra as a group administrator. A group administrator can make other
people a manager and only they can add or remove others to the group.
To select group managers, go to the relevant group, click on
the name of the group and go to the overview with participants. By tapping a
name you will see the available options; there you will also find the
possibility to make someone a manager.
34. Email chat
If you want to keep a certain conversation with someone, you
can, of course, keep it on your smartphone. With WhatsApp, it is also possible
to send the conversation via e-mail to yourself or someone else. To do this, go
to Settings> chats> chat history> chat email. Here you select the
contact person and you can also choose to attach the media files.
35. Notifications
You can personalize the general settings for notifications
to your own liking. You can set a different notification sound for WhatsApp
messages, but you can also adjust the color of the LED indicator and adjust the
vibration pattern. You can also set certain things for calls.
36. Set font size
If you find the standard text size of the letters too large
or too small, you can adjust the size of the text at settings> chats and
calls and then at font size. You can choose small, medium or large. When you
adjust this, your messages will now be displayed in the chosen format.
37. Remove WhatsApp
If you are completely done with WhatsApp, you can delete
your account. In the settings menu, you can choose 'delete my account' under
'account'. Everything will be deleted, such as your chat history, your Google
Drive backup and you will be removed from the groups in which you participate.
38. Change skin color of emoji
If you want to change the skin color of emoticons in
WhatsApp, you can do this in a handy way. However, this cannot be adjusted with
every emoji. With emojis that can get a different skin color, you will see a
triangle in the corner near the smiley. If you then hold down the emoticon, you
will see a number of options for changing the skin color.
39. Send middle finger in WhatsApp
Recently you can send the middle finger emoji in WhatsApp.
You can also send the middle finger to someone in six different skin colors.
The middle finger emoji can be found in the row with the thumb up and the
muscle emoji.
40. WhatsApp messages delete everyone
Handy if you have sent a message a little too early, or
regret a chat message. You can remove your app by holding it down and then
tapping the trash. Keep in mind that someone else may have seen your message,
in the app or as a notification. When deleting a message you can choose to
delete it for yourself or for everyone. A sent message must be deleted within a
few minutes.
