WhatsApp will soon sort status updates by user preferences

Instant messaging platform will soon sort status updates on the basis of a user’s preference. WhatsApp statuses are currently displayed in a chronological fashion, which can be an issue for users that have hundreds of contacts. This is because they might be shown statuses that are not of relevance to them.

The new algorithm will give users the power to select contacts whose statuses they wish to see. This was first reported by Mashable.

The report suggests the feature is currently in its testing phase and will be tested among a small set of iPhone users based out of India, Brazil and Spain. It will be rolled out to more users in the coming months.
