Even if WhatsApp is one of the most used apps in the world, not everyone knows it perfectly: there are in fact "tricks", which can make their use much easier, which few know few.The simple reason: WhatsApp is already very easy to use, so few care to find ways to make it even easier.
Yet these ways are there, because Facebook developers improve WhatsApp continually adding small and big news.Small as the possibility of quickly listening to the voice messages, as large as multi-administrative WhatsApp to use the same profile on multiple devices simultaneously, even if the main smartphone is not online.Among the small news, Whatsapp has long introduced one that allows us to access a quick menu without even opening the app.It works both on Android and on iOS, but due to the different functioning of these two operating systems, the effects of the same gesture are very different.Here's what happens when we hold the WhatsApp app for at least two seconds.
WhatsApp: how to activate the menu
To activate the quick menu of WhatsApp on the smartphone, the app icon is necessary to be placed on the home.On Android, therefore, if it is not there or if it has been removed, it is necessary to reposition it by going to look for the list of apps.Here it will be necessary to hold the WhatsApp icon pressed and then "release it" at the point of the home we prefer.
WhatsApp: how the fast menu is done
At this point we will be ready to open the fast menu of WhatsApp: just keep the icon of the app on the home for at least two seconds (one on Android is enough) and normally hidden options will appear.Which will be different on iOS and Android, because the way the two main operating systems for smartphones work are different.
In both cases, in the upper part of the menu, the options common to all apps will appear.On iOS we can delete the app, share it with a contact or place it on the home.On Android we can remove it, uninstall it or change its name.The other options will appear immediately afterwards, the real fast menu.
On Android we will see fast access to the camera and then at the 4 chats with which we interacted lately.On iOS there will be the icons to show our QR code (very useful to add us to someone by someone), to open the camera, to start a new chat or to look for existing chats inside.
