bedsides whose cats are still "furry" these days... lool ... @ furry friend

[@breejones2501]

To add bold to text wrap a * around the text e.g. *word* or *multiple words here*. Also similar with italics, just add _ before and after text e.g. _italics_ or _add italics to this text here_. These features work good for a single or multiple sentences provided they are contained with a paragraph. If you create a new paragraph you need to apply the features again.

[@teoxengineer]

So great feature which I don’t know ! 👍 thank you so much

[@ahmadal-ahmad5340]

that is more efficient than what Kevin mentioned

[@prabhjeetsingh623]

There is another one for strike through text in whatsapp by putting a ~ in the beginning and at the end of the text eg. ~Kevin~

[@Quran_logic]

i knew everything on the video except this one! Lol, thanks

[@user-tc9lh3kr9i]

Or you could hold on a word and drag the blue thing around the whole message like on a computer, it'll give you different options like copy, paste, undo etc then you get the 3 dots, if u tap on the 3 dots it'll give a option to change the font

[@patricioelosua5886]

If you want to see the conversation of when an image was shared some time ago, go to media, press on the photo/video/link etc, and then press "show in chat" this will take you to the exact moment the image was shared and you can view the conversation. Great video!

[@VoiceActingAnime]

where is the show in chat button i can only find it on links not photos

[@waltpires231]

[@rashidahthetravelplugmyecon]

Great video very helpful

[@nakdickson]

Other bonus tips. You can add fingerprint lock to whatsapp. You can share higher quality image with friends (go to storage and media, and then photo upload quality, then change to "best quality" and you can block specific people from viewing your status or choose specific people to few your status.

[@KevinStratvert]

Great tips!

[@melkitson]

Nice one Kevin. I am glad to see that someone also mentioned in their comment about bold and italics. There is also one for strikethrough.

[@arkay56]

What is it please?

[@melkitson]

@@arkay56 Use a tilde ~ before and after the text you wish to strikethrough.

[@KevinStratvert]

Alternatively, you can also highlight / select the text and you'll see options to bold, italicize, or strikethrough 👍

[@melkitson]

I always learn so much from your videos. I had to start using the app as an emergency tool during the Russia-Ukraine War. I never learned how to use the app properly. Thank you for the tips! One last tip: always be careful with international contacts you've never met. There are scammers seeking to harm you. Stay smart! 🧠💪

May I know what's new since all of these already exists. I can't believe you made a video out of this with something as simple and old as live location and read receipts.

[@noeliaroman4]

Oh Kevin. Tks so much for this videos. They are so useful for us the not so young people.... I knew some but still needed to learn lots of the others I don't. Great!. Technology changes every day and I don't have the time to read lots and I appreciate you do this very clear and simple.

[@teoxengineer]

Thanks Kevin for those tips&Tricks. I wanna share some missing tips like: - Notification on/off - Send some messages to archive folder to make it silence or hide your whatsup message list - Store all message list in cloud like İCloud and call them again when you need them - QR code feature to show your whatsup ID in order to be added your friend list easly

[@KevinStratvert]

Thanks for the tips!

[@rebeccaalbers2924]

Is the phonenumber also attached when you add a contact by QR ? Or is it able to have whatsapp conversations with people without letting them have your phone number this way?

[@naomicampana]

WhatsApp turning into WeChat. Lol

[@stephencooper9642]

Good Tip, limit the amount of times someone can see the image, Sometimes just viewing an image once when your introducing yourself could be a good tip to give out, :)

How do you change your background? Thanks 😊

[@KevinStratvert]

For this one, I used Magic Mask in DaVinci Resolve 18 Studio... no green screen necessary. It automatically creates a mask around you and then you can replace the background with anything. It's pretty phenomenal tech.

Thanks so much for all the tips Kevin 😀. Love the 'share location' as really handy for my mother to turn on when we're out and about. Some WA features I've found useful recently are #1 putting restrictions on your WA to being added to Groups [Settings > Account > Privacy > Groups] so you can choose the contacts that add you into Groups #2 using translator when messaging [on Android from icons below message field and ellipsis to right - option to translate can be added].

[@Dany-ns6hg]

Hi Kevin, I love your content and have learne a lot over these last year or so. One feedback i have is that your voice seems very mechanical… seems like you are using some kind of software. The natural voice will help us connect with you better. Thanks😃

Meow... Some cool tips

[@tica5791]

Great tips! btw, you can add new ringtones to choose from for the customized alert tones.

[@nicovanrensburg9318]

Hi Kevin, It will be great if we could copy and paste a POLL to re-use or while busy by editing it on the go when you using it on a group.

[@thedigitallens]

Good tips Kevin. Just to add to the list, one can assign different notification lights for normal chat and group chat. This can be a good way to identify messages received without switching on the mobile. This is available on Android. Not sure if this is available on iOS.

[@petermiddo]

You can also individualise the sounds and lights (by colour & flash pattern) for different people, or have no notification for others.

[@imagesbyraphael]

Send a view-once picture of your... cat. Haha, nice subtle reference. I guess that goes for pics of your rooster too.

[@adetutumichael5267]

thank you for job well done

[@meytallibermanadvocate2634]

Thanks for the great tips! I was wondering... My biggest problem with WA is that it quickly becomes overflooded with messages, most of which from groups I've muted (but still wish to remain a member of). As a result, when a new message comes in from a contact who I haven't muted, I find myself endlessly scrolling to find the relevant chat (or having to try and remember which contact it was and then use the search function to look him out). It there any tip or trick to tackle this? Thanks! :)

[@abdelrahmanessam9400]

thank you

[@senugawarshakoon1102]

Please make a video on iMovie please

[@robertgiuliani4405]

I wonder if the version you have in the video is for iPhone and may be different on Android or they made GUI changes since your video.

[@bjstirling]

I noticed that too. I think it should be mentioned that the instructions are for iOS. It's not too hard to figure out for Android but some people may not be aware of this difference.

[@sweetyjoseph8661]

Thank you Kevin very helpful video, how to hide online status while you’re online from a particular contact? Is it possible?

[@Godhiger]

Thanks, Kevin your video is helpful. I just want to know If there's a way to hide or not to seeing the others people profile pictures on my WhatsApp? Or if I hide my profile picture will I see their profile picture on my WhatsApp? Thanks!

[@uwhoalbert1560]

Please which software are you using to cast your phone screen?

[@hoangcamapas]

Kelvin, normal phone call always show "forward incoming call" even no register any services. Is this fw by service carrier and even recorded? If making the phone by Whatsapp, Telegram. Is this more safe?

[@joanneyoung8590]

Great video but I can't find the settings bar at the bottom of my phone (android) screen and some of them are not in my general WhatsApp settings?

[@riadhosein7362]

Hi Joanne I was having a similar issue but I clicked the paperclip icon and a menu with the location button popped up and you can turn on the location form there. Whatsapp will ask you to allow location settings etc and you will be fine from there. Hope this helps! Keep safe and well.
