With this new feature, users can highlight their favorite contacts in their status updates without being overt. When a contact is mentioned, just the stated person receives a discreet alert, guaranteeing that they are informed as soon as possible about their mention.
The feature’s privacy component is noteworthy because it only sends alerts to the specified contacts, protecting their private from other users. The intended recipients are guaranteed discretion and confidentiality as these mentions are completely private and hidden from view in status updates.
“By allowing users to mention contacts in their status updates, it generates a greater sense of interaction within specific contacts,” WABetaInfo said, emphasizing the importance of this feature. This mechanism will make sure that the contacts listed are always informed of any significant developments or events since a notification is sent directly to them.”
