1.Begone Blue Ticks

Many times your phone pings with a message and you want to read it at the same time but not respond to it even though you have time. Don’t worry, as now you have the privilege to read those messages and not let the other person know you have read their message. Users can just access the privacy via settings and disable the read receipts.
2.Create Shortcuts For Your BFF
Yes, we all have that one friend with whom we chat the most! In that case you do not need to open your app always in order to chat with them. You can simply create a shortcut of their name by long pressing on their name and choosing the create a shortcut option in your phone’s homepage. Easy.
3.Send Exact Location
This icon is very useful for you if you have any late comers in your group! We all have that one friend who is an expert in lying as to where they are when they are late. Now, you can ask them to send their location that will help you in catching them red-handed! All you need to do is ask them their location by simply accessing it in your smartphone’s attachments icon. A location does not display the name of the address in Whatsapp maps.
4.Bulk Messaging Through Broadcast List
This is one of the coolest feature that most people are unaware of! Sometimes there will be some important messages you want to send some people without having to create a group for that, as you don’t chat with them on regular group chats.
