The one catch is you’ll need to be a WhatsApp beta user and specifically have iOS 22.6.0.73 version.

The update brings individual user access to an interface previously offered to WhatsApp Business clients.

This interface features a useful ‘search message’ shortcut.

Users that are anxious to get the update as soon as possible can participate in beta trials.

To download WhatsApp beta for your smartphone you need to go to Google Play on your Android and search for WhatsApp.

Scroll down the page until you see “Become a Beta Tester”.

Tap the “I’m In” button and then click “Join” to confirm.

Now all you have to do is wait for the update to the beta version of the app.
