WhatsApp is making it easier to find chats.

Meta is launching new filters that will appear at the top of your chat list: All (the default view), Unread (just messages marked as unread), and Groups (group chats and Community subgroups).

The filters start rolling out today, and will become available to all WhatsApp users “in the coming weeks.”
