Top Community Feature Requests for WhatsApp

Customizable Pinned Chats Limit

I’d love to see WhatsApp increase the pinned chats limit or allow users to customize it. The current limit of 3 can feel restrictive for people who regularly chat with family, friends, work contacts, and important groups. Having more pinned chats would make it easier to stay organized and quickly access important conversations.

Higher quality media sharing

WhatsApp aggressively compresses photos and videos making them look terrible. Offer an option to send media in original quality even if it takes longer to upload.

Multi-device with separate numbers

Allow linking the same WhatsApp account across devices with different phone numbers, not just the same number. Perfect for people with work and personal phones.

Scheduled messages natively

WhatsApp has no native message scheduling. Users resort to third-party apps that require accessibility permissions. Build simple scheduling directly into the message composer.
