The new feature would allow users to have three of their favorite chats to stay on top of the Chats tab.

Users of Whatsapp can also see other options including Mute, Archive and Delete as well, by long-pressing a chat.

The biggest advantage of the feature is that once you have pinned a chat, it will stay on the top of your chat list, regardless of your conversation or dialogue timings with the concerned individual or group.

The new feature will also give users the option to unpin a chat whenever they want. They can do it by long-pressing the option and disabling the Pin button. Users will also be able to see any new chats or conversations following the pinned chats.
