It's hard to
find a 'drowning' conversation among new chats in whatsApp, isn’t? Frequently
send messages to certain people and want to quickly open the chat but don’t want
to search? Here is how to create a shortcut link or icon that can take us
directly to the chat or to the desired conversation in whatsApp without having
to search and pass the WhatsApp home interface.
Over time WhatsApp
users continue to grow, from elementary school level to parents or event grandparent
almost all have WhatsApp account on their phone, in addition to its easy use
like SMS or phone call like conventional phone, this application also allows us
to create groups that can be created and joined by anyone.
The more contacts you add, the more
conversations you receive and even send from your phone or smartphone, especially
when chatting with friends in groups, some are quiet but some are always active
all the time, which forced you to be selective
on choosing chat on whatsApp. Along with lot of active chat, the effects is
we can send text or image messages to contacts or groups that are different
from what we mean, in other words "misplaced
chat" hehe ..
Well how to
avoid the misplaced? If the wrong one is chat in general topic we only need to
add follow-up message like, "sorry wrong send". But it will be
difficult if the misplaced chat is the sensitive data such as Email password,
ATM PIN, or other sensitive messages that cost you more than money.
How to Create Shortcuts Directly to WhatsApp's Desired Chat at Home screen
Here's an easy step to create a shortcut or a new link for a chat or group whatsApp that we want and put it on the Home screen.
- Open WhatsApp App on your phone
- Open Group or Chat (conversation) that we want to open as a target shortcut
- Click >Menu (3 circle lined buttons) are generally on the top-right of the screen
- Select >More on the popup menu that appears
- Select >Add shortcut. Done!
Done!. After selecting >Add shortcut
then a new icon will appear in your phone home screen. Check the home screen
area or in the app group, the shortcut will be like an app icon with the image that
being used by the group or contact along with the same name.
Note! in Creating the WhatsApp Chat Shortcut at home screen
- Chat icons or shortcuts that have been created in the home screen can be moved with drag and drop like other application icons, can also be stored in certain folders along with other applications.
- As shown in the picture, we can create more than one shortcut chat for personal contacts as well as for shortcut group chat. Based on experiments ri-techno.com team, we made 15 shortcuts and were still okay and seem no problem to add more shortcut.
- The name of the shortcut or icon we have created (until this article is compiled) cannot be renamed or change the image icon, the attribute follows the data or image that being used as profile picture in each contacts or group in whatsApp.
- The shortcut created is not a new application but only a link or icon that connected to the same chat source, accessible via shortcut and still accessible through the application whatsApp as usual.
- When you no longer need the shortcut that has been created, it can be removed easily as removing applications from the home screen, if the Smartphone Xiaomi (Android) and iPhone (iOS) we just need to drag and drop shortcut icon into the trash can icon that appears at the top screen.
