Message replies into threaded conversations in WA

WhatsApp is working on a new threaded reply feature to make your conversations more organized and understandable!

The latest WhatsApp beta for iOS 25.19.10.80, available in TestFlight, has revealed that a feature is in development that will allow you to organize your replies to messages into structured threads.

How it will work#

In a future update, users will be able to view and track replies grouped under the original message, providing a more structured and consistent conversation experience.

Messages will be updated with a small indicator showing the number of replies contained in the thread associated with it. This will allow users to understand how many replies are associated with a particular message without having to open the thread.

Clicking on this indicator will take users to a new screen that will display all the replies associated with the original message in an organized manner. This makes it easier to follow the conversations, especially when conversations become long or fragmented.

Within the new screen, users will be able to not only read all the replies, but also send a new reply directly, which will automatically be added to the same thread. This provides continuity and keeps related messages organized.

Advantages of this feature#

  • More efficient conversation tracking: Instead of scrolling through the entire chat history to find all the replies to a specific message, users can simply open the thread and focus on a specific discussion.

  • Improved understanding of context: Users no longer have to scroll through the entire chat history or manually search for the original message to understand what a reply refers to.

  • Organization in group chats: In group chats, where the high volume of messages can make it difficult to track individual replies, threads can help reduce confusion by organizing replies in one place.

  • Keep the flow of the conversation: An organized view can help keep the flow of the conversation and reduce confusion, especially in situations where multiple users are responding at the same time.

Conclusion#

WhatsApp continues to improve the user experience. Streamed replies are another step in this direction.

The feature of organizing replies to messages into structured streams is in development and will be available in a future update of the application.
