CONTACT NOTES
In the article about the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.9.12 update, we announced that WhatsApp was working on a feature to attach notes to contacts. This enhancement was designed to improve contact management for business users by allowing them to add personalized notes directly within the chat info screen. It appears that WhatsApp is now testing this feature with the public, as certain businesses can finally save notes for their customers after installing the latest updates. Thanks to the latest WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.15.6 update, which is available on the Google Play Store, we discovered that WhatsApp is rolling out a business feature to add contact notes!
As you can see from the attached screenshot, some beta testers can now explore a new business tool aimed at helping them to manage customer information more efficiently. This feature allows businesses to keep track of important details and interactions with their customers, ensuring that important information is easily accessible and well-organized. Businesses can add notes by opening the chat info screen with their customers, providing a convenient and integrated way to maintain and reference customer details. After adding notes, businesses can view, edit, and delete them directly from the chat info screen.
We believe that WhatsApp aims to provide a more efficient way for businesses to keep track of relevant customer information, ensuring that important details are easily accessible through the integration of this feature. It is very important to note that these notes are private. This means that they are visible only to the business who created them, maintaining confidentiality and preserving privacy without compromising the integrity of their communications. Additionally, it is worth mentioning that this is a business tool, meaning the ability to attach notes is not currently available in the standard customer app.
A business feature to add contact notes is available to some beta testers who install the latest updates of WhatsApp beta for Android from the Google Play Store, and it is rolling out to even more people over the coming weeks.
