Meta’s messaging app, WhatsApp, is starting to roll out a new feature that allows users to browse through channel photos, videos, GIFs, and links. This feature is currently accessible to some users participating in the beta testing phase.
Similar to how starred messages function in individual and group chats, this feature enables users to save specific updates from a channel for later retrieval, according to WABetaInfo.
This enhancement aims to streamline the process of finding essential updates, reducing the need to scroll through lengthy channel histories and improving overall user convenience.
Previously, searching for media in channels that share a high volume of updates could be tedious and frustrating. The absence of a dedicated section for media and links made it challenging for users to quickly find important content, especially if they couldn’t remember specific keywords to refine their search.
To tackle these issues, WhatsApp has added a dedicated media and links section in the channel info screen.

Moreover, this new section functions similarly to the existing one in the chat info screen for one-on-one and group chats. Users will be able to scroll through all the photos, videos, and GIFs shared within a channel without needing to dig through older updates manually.
This improvement is expected to substantially enhance the user experience by facilitating quicker and more efficient content retrieval.
Now, with just a few taps, users won’t have to remember the exact date or context of a shared media file or link to find it easily.
This feature ensures that users can access relevant information effortlessly, making it especially advantageous for channels that regularly post announcements, news updates, or multimedia content.
