Want to get away of that irritating WhatsApp mate who sends you good morning texts, and irritating messages, or unpleasant videos/photos but doesn’t want to blacklist him? There is a straightforward way to accomplish this. The Meta-owned online messaging network recently sent out a bundled version of the archived conversation feature. Users can now permanently mute a contact via the chat feature. So, if you have an unpleasant contact that sends you good morning texts or unwelcome forwards regularly, simply archive the chat and forget him/her.
