WhatsApp is testing a new feature that'll make sure you never lose a message

WhatsApp users know that, with things like group chats and people messaging you all day, your most important chats can get lost in the shuffle.

But now the messaging service is testing a new feature that'll make it a whole lot easier to manage your chats.

Android Police reports that WhatsApp is testing a feature that would allow you to pin chats, keeping them at the top of the chat list even if you get messages from other users.

To pin a chat, users can tap and hold on the chat, and a pin logo will appear on the top bar along with the delete, mute and archive logos. Users can pin up to three chats, and can easily unpin any of the three chats to add another.

The feature is currently being tested on the beta version of the Android app which users can get by opting into the beta group here. Since the feature is only in beta, there's no guarantee that it will be rolled out to all users, but for the sake of our lost messages, we sure hope it is.
