• Using Multiple Whats app accounts on a single device

Parallel Space Application on Google Play Store

    Yes, you read that right. You can use Whats app accounts from two numbers i.e. two accounts from a single device. But the condition is you need to have a dual sim smart phone. If you are using a Xiaomi smart phone with MIUI, you do not have to install any third party application. You get that feature inbuilt in Settings→Dual apps→whats app. From there you can easily create a second account using your secondary sim. If you do not own a Xiaomi device, you have to install an app called “Parallel Space” from the Google play store. This app will allow you to run two different Whats app accounts on your single device. It can also bring you separate notifications for both the accounts. In this way, you can easily manage multiple Whats app accounts.

• Read messages on Whats app without the sender knowing about it

Aeroplane mode or Flight mode

    Whats app is a great messenger with many user friendly features. One such feature is the 'tick' or 'blue tick' feature which conveys the sender if the message has been received or seen. But this feature becomes a headache if you don't want the sender know that you have read the message. So in such situations, you can just turn on the 'Flight mode' or 'Aeroplane mode' of your device and then read the message and after reading just turn of the flight mode. In this way, the sender will think that you have not read the message but only you know the truth. 

• Pin Favorite chats to the top.

    You can also pin your favorite chat on the top of the chat list and these chats will remain forever at first. Just by long pressing on the chat you want to pin and tapping on the pin icon, you can pin those important chats.

• Decide which media to auto download

   You can also decide which media to auto download when connected to mobile data and when connected to Wi-Fi. This feature gets very handy if you have a limited data pack and if the whats app starts auto downloading all the media files yo receive including photos, audios and videos, it consumes a lot of data and fills your device with loads of unwanted files and media (mostly with those cliche Good Morning and Good Night images). Thus you can decide which media you want to auto download or you can set it for not downloading any media at all and downloading it only when you click on it manually. The steps for  enable this are Settings→ Data and storage usage→Media auto download and customize it according to your preference.

• Read messages deleted by sender

   Yep! You read that right. Whats app has introduced its new feature in which you can delete the message send to a chat before an hour after sending that message (first it was just after 7 minutes). So you don't have to worry if you send a wrong message or to a wrong chat or group. Practically, that is not the case. You can read the message even after it has been deleted by the sender. All the deleted messages are store in the notification system of android system. So if you want to read them, you will need to download an application called 'Notisave' from the Google Play Store. Go through the installation process and allow the app for Whats app notification. With this app you can read the deleted message on Whats app. Note that this trick is only available for Android users.
