WhatsApp may soon let users pin up to five chats at the top of their chat feed, according to the platform tracker WABetaInfo.
Currently, the instant messaging platform allows users to pin up to three chats.
“With the number of chats increasing daily, having the option to pin more chats can help users stay more organised and focused. In addition, as more and more users are using larger screens, we believe it makes sense to support a higher limit of pinned chats to better meet their needs,” WABetaInfo said in its report.

Here’s how to pin chats
Open WhatsApp and hold on to a chat you want to pin. This works on both iPhone and Android. On the desktop, click on the drop-down arrow and pin the conversation.
The platform recently launched the ability to undo messages deleted accidentally on Android, iOS and desktop. It also introduced a verification option on WhatsApp beta for Android to log on to the app using a 6-digit code.
