The most widely used social networks in Brazil belong to the company Meta. Among them is WhatsApp, which is always receiving new updates and features to improve the experience of its users.
However, there is usually no clear explanation of what these new features do. One example of this is the flags that now appear in messages sent via the app.
For a few weeks now, WhatsApp users have been asking what this is all about on social media, as many people have started seeing flags appearing next to their messages. With this in mind, today we will tell you about the features of these flags.
All about the flags next to WhatsApp messages
Initially, it is necessary to point out that this function has been in the application for a long time, however few people use it.
Therefore, it is not very common to see these flags on WhatsApp, even though they can be very useful for those who use the application daily.
These flags are designed to mark your “favorite” messages in temporary conversations that are scheduled to disappear within 24 hours of their creation.
This way, when you mark a message with the flag, it will be kept within the temporary chat even after the 24-hour period has expired, allowing you to continue reading it.
In this sense, this feature can be useful to prevent important messages from being accidentally deleted along with the temporary chat.

To do this, press and hold the message for a few seconds until the top action bar appears. In that bar, you will see an option with a flag, select it, and the message will be marked.
Finally, be sure to coordinate with other chat participants so that everyone can save important messages.
