WhatsApp is studying some methods to prevent spam
Nowadays, the spam is a very widespread phenomena, and it is unfortunately also present in WhatsApp, starting to unknown contacts that add you in new groups, or when you receive spam messages like this:
WhatsApp is going to cost us money soon. The only way that it will stay free is if you are a frequent user i.e. you have at least 10 people you are chatting with. To become a frequent user send this message to 10 people who receive it (2 ticks) and your WhatsApp logo should turn Red to indicate a frequent user.
This is absolutely false, but not well-versed users may believe to these messages, or they may be bothered for them.
WhatsApp to support mentions notification in groups
How many times you received a lot of notifications in a group (for example 100 or more messages) and you decided to not read all them messages?
Soon a new feature will be available that will allow you to quickly find and read only messages where you were mentioned, so all messages sent in the group for you.
WhatsApp allows you right now to listen your voice message before sending it
