WhatsApp is soon bringing its “Chat with your own number” feature to Windows users as well. This will help users to send quick notes or reminders, or crucial information to themselves at ease. The Message Yourself feature was already rolled out to WhatsApp on Android and iOS last month.
WhatsApp users are required to download the latest version of the beta app from Microsoft Store to access this feature. Users will see a separate chat with their name followed by “(You)”. They can simply open the tab and send quick notes, shopping lists, reminders, bookmarks, and others.
According to a WABetaInfo report, every time a message is sent to users’ number, it will be delivered to all the linked devices. Notably, the chat will be end-to-end encrypted, so only the user who sent the message can see them across their linked devices.
This feature can help users save important messages and access them in one place. Earlier, users had to star messages which can be saved upon long pressing a message, upon which a dialogue box appears which gives the option of starring a message that gets saved in a separate folder which is accessible on clicking the three dots on the top right corner of the app.
