Reply to Individual Messages in WhatsApp Group
Previously there was no easy way to reply to individual Messages within a WhatsApp Group Chat and this resulted in confusion as to who was replying to who. With this kind of setup there was always a potential to create confusion and even serious misunderstanding between Group Members. For example, let us say that you checked your WhatsApp account and found a Message from a Group chat saying that “Canada Won the World Cup Hockey!”. Naturally, if you are Canadian you might reply “Great” or something similar along that line and close your phone. However, unknown to you the messages in this Group chat might appear in the following order to other members in the WhatsApp Group:- While your reply was actually meant for the first Message, it actually ended up appearing after the second Message, making it look really bad, as if you were trying to rub it into the Americans. Such a scenario and even worse ones can play out in a Group chat. Luckily, you can now avoid such misunderstandings and embarrassment by Replying to specific Individual Messages on WhatsApp.
