About lists
Lists are customizable filters that can help you keep your chats organized. Go to Chats and swipe down to view your lists.
You have four default lists:
- All: The default view of all your messages.
- Unread: Chats with messages that you mark as unread or haven't opened yet.
- Favorites: Chats from your favorite contacts.
- Groups: All your group chats in one place.
When selected, lists are highlighted in green. Lists remain applied until you change the filter view, or exit and re-open WhatsApp.
Notes:
- Chats can't be reorganized within All, Unread, or Groups.
- Contacts added as favorites appear in the Chats tab, the Favorites list, and the Calls tab under Favorites. Learn more in this article.
Create custom lists
You can create custom lists to sort your chats into separate, accessible categories. To view your custom lists, go to the chats tab and swipe down.
