It appears that WhatsApp is testing with a new feature, which is similar to the one in Telegram. This option is being rolled out to a very selective number of users with the latest WhatsApp version functioning in their mobiles, i.e. v2.18.232 beta.
With this new development, users will now be able to mark messages as read. This "mark as read" feature would do the very thing its name suggests — label texts as being read, so that people are not bothered with constant notifications every time they log in to the application.
This is very useful and handy tool, which is absolutely adored by people on Telegram. We are earnestly hoping that soon this update is made available to people across the globe.
