    1. Open WhatsApp and click on the contact for whom you want a custom notification
    2. Now, click on their profile, and you should be able to see an option called ‘Custom Notifications‘. Click on Custom Notification.
    3. Now, enable ‘Use Custom Notifications‘ option by clicking on the checkbox on its right side.
    4. Now, you click on ‘Notification Tone‘ and select the tone of your choice. The same goes for the call ringtone. You can click on ‘Ringtone‘ and choose the ringtone of your choice from the list.

    2. How To Check Whom You Share The Most Files With On WhatsApp

    1. Open WhatsApp and click on the Three-Dots Button on the top right side of the screen.
    2. No, click on ‘Settings‘.
    3. Click on ‘Storage and Data‘.
    4. Once you click on ‘Manage Storage‘, you can see whom you’ve shared most files with on WhatsApp. You can find this under the Chats section on the screen.

    This section also shows you how much storage is filled and left on your smartphone, all the large-sized files, and file size data for each contact on your WhatsApp.

    3. How To Delete Older Sent WhatsApp Messages For Everyone

    We all know that WhatsApp allows deleting messages for everyone in the chat thread. However, the feature is only available until contacts in the chat thread haven’t seen the message. But there’s a trick that allows you to delete older messages that others have already seen.

    1. Open WhatsApp and open the chat thread where you’ve sent a message or file that you now want to unsend. Check its sent date and time and note it down.
    2. Now, go to your phone’s Settings app and change the time and date of your phone to the noted ones.
    3. Open WhatsApp again and go to that particular message which you want to delete or unsend.
    4. Now, long-press that particular message or file. Now, you will see the ‘Delete‘ option (denoted by a garbage bin-shaped icon) on the top bar. Click on that ‘Delete‘ icon.
    5. Now, a pop-up menu will appear. Click on ‘Delete For Everyone‘. And voila! You’ve deleted that message or file for everyone in that chat thread. No one can see it any longer.

    4. How To Pause WhatsApp Status Playback With A Neat Trick

    Are you tired of clicking and holding a status message just so that you can see it clearly? Well, there’s a neat trick that you can use so that you can keep the WhatsApp Status paused without you needing to hold it with your finger. Here’s how you can do it.

    1. Open WhatsApp and click on the ‘Status‘ tab.
    2. Now, find the contact whose Status you want to see and click on their profile status.
    3. Once their Status starts playing, touch the phone’s screen using three fingers at once. This will pause the Status playback and you can remove your fingers from the screen and keep viewing the Status update for as long as you want.

    That’s quite useful, isn’t it!

    5. How To Save Someone’s WhatsApp Status Update

    Want to save someone’s WhatsApp Status? You can easily do that by following this procedure. However, this feature will only work on Android smartphones.

    1. Open WhatsApp and view the WhatsApp Status that you want to save.
    2. Now, open a File Manager app on your Android smartphone and allow it to show Hidden Files. Since every brand’s Android smartphone or tablet uses a different File Manager app, the option to show hidden files can be different. Once you find that option and enable it, navigate to this folder: com.whatsApp > WhatsApp > Media > Statuses. Here you can find the WhatsApp status that you’re looking for.
    3. Now, copy that file and store it in any other folder of your choice.

    We hope that these cool WhatsApp tips and tricks will help you every day.
