WhatsApp is introducing a new search feature that will allow users to search for groceries, clothing stores, hotels, eateries, etc. nearby within the application itself.
This theme has been released for certain users in Sao Paulo and gradually it will be made available for more number of people. This feature will also be there for both Android and iOS users, Mint reports.
“When you search for something within WhatsApp, there will be a new section called 'Businesses Nearby': when you select the category, the results of business accounts will be filtered based on your choice,” WhatsApp tracker WABetaInfo was quoted in an article by the aforementioned publication.
However, no clarification has yet been issued over whether people residing outside of Sao Paulo can make use of these features from the Business Directory.
The Meta-owned company has already redesigned the page for Business Info following the release of WhatsApp beta for iOS 2.21.170.12 update. Now, the very same redesigned page will be put in place for the Contact Info as a search shortcut will now be inserted into it.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
