How to Set Up a WhatsApp Message Reminder: A Step-by-Step Guide

 How to Set Up a WhatsApp Message   Reminder: A Step-by-Step Guide


If someone sends you a message on WhatsApp and you are currently engaged with some other task, the instant messaging service's ‘Remind Me' feature can be a handy way to keep track of messages. WhatsApp rolled out the new Remind Me feature to beta testers earlier this year, and while it is still in testing, you will soon be able to set up reminders for the texts you have already read. The Meta-owned platform displays a list of preset intervals for the same. However, you can even set a custom time and date for the reminder, too, when the app pushes a notification to your handset.

Here is a step-by-step guide to help you set up message reminders in WhatsApp, as long as you're running a recently released beta version of WhatsApp for iOS or Android smartphones. As the functionality is expected to roll out to other users soon, you can revisit this article after receiving the update.

  2. Long-press the Send button on the right side of the text message box.

  7. (Optional) In case you wish to set a custom reminder, tap on Custom > select date and time for the reminder.
