Whatsapp Tips And Tricks To Make You Addicted by hiidee(m): 5:45pm On Jan 28, 2015 |
WhatsApp is at this hour, one of the most used messengers, having around half a billion active users from all over the world, which installed this application to keep in touch with their friends and families. So, whether you’re living in Europe, Asia or America, you’re probably addicted to this application and you are using it daily to keep in touch with your contacts. Here are a few tips and tricks that could improve your experience with this application. Hide the Last Seen status and block contacts When you install WhatsApp on an Android or iOS device, by default, the application shows a Last seen timestamp which will let the others know when was the last time you accessed the app, and you will want to hide from stalkers, therefore to turn off this feature. If you’re using an iOS device, go to Settings->Chat Settings->Advanced and turn off the Last Seen Timestamp. But, things are more complicated with an Android device, because you’ll need a third party application such as Hide WhatsApp Status, which disables the WiFi and data connection when opening the application and it allows you to check what’s new on WhatsApp, then, after you close the app, Hide WhatsApp Status reactivates your Wifi/data connection and you’ll send messages without letting the others know when you were last seen. To block a contact that bothers you, all you have to do is to tap on the + button and you’ll get the list of your contacts. Select the person you no longer want to have in your list and tap the Blocked contacts button. Must Have Android Apps Disabling auto-download for Media If you’re using an Android device, go to Settings->Chat Settings-> Media auto-download and tap and uncheck each of these three options: When using mobile data, When connected on WiFi and When roaming. For iPhones, this option can be turned off by unchecking the Save Incoming Media from Chat Settings.

How to Choose A Good Gaming Laptop Backing up and restoring messages To back up messages and media on Android smartphones, you can do this by storing them to the local storage from Chat Settings, or you can attach the conversations and send them to your email. Apple has the iCloud that will allow the iPhone users to back up their conversations. There’s another method to store messages, Auto Backup, but when you will reinstall the application, you’ll get back only your conversations from the previous backup, not the videos as well. To restore messages on an Android device after reinstalling the application, if you have backed up conversations or copies of them on the SD card, the app will ask you if you want to restore them. Tap on Restore and you will have all your messages back. On iPhones, everything can be restored as long as the conversations are backed up in the iCloud. Locking down WhatsApp If you’re afraid that your friends will read your messages, you can lock down WhatsApp and your account will be secure from curious eyes. The best way to protect your privacy is to install applications such as WhatsApp Lock (Android) or Lock for WhatsApp (BlackBerry), while if you have a jailbroken iOS, you can use the iAppLock tweak. Sending bigger files on Android To send files that are bigger than 15MB, the easiest way to do this is by using the CloudSend application which will upload your files and it will give you a link which you’ll copy and sent to your friends. To download the files, they must click on the link. Creating shortcuts for special Contacts On Android, you must long press on the contact/group and you will see a pop up. Just tap on Add conversation shortcut and you will have access to your favorite contacts directly on your homescreen. To add shortcuts of your favorite contacts on iOS, you’ll need a third-party application, and we recommend you 1TapWA.
