It was recently reported that WhatsApp is planning to launch a feature to search messages by date, something that was expected two years ago but never saw the light of day. Now, the feature is being tested with some beta users, suggesting that it could arrive for all soon. Check out the details below.

According to a recent WABetaInfo report, WhatsApp has released the new iOS beta update version, 22.24.0.77. As part of the update, there’s now the ability to look for messages by date. This feature will make it much easier for you to search for messages, especially the ones sent a long time ago.

It is said that the new search feature is rolling out to a few beta users but should arrive for more soon. Eventually, it is expected to reach the general audience too.
