WhatsApp has just rolled out a much-needed feature on the latest beta version of its Android app. The popular messaging app is now allowing users to pin popular chats to the top of the conversation list. This feature falls in line with the pinned tweet option found on Twitter. We expect this feature to eventually make it to the final builds of Android and iPhone.

You can pin up to three chats including individual or group on WhatsApp on Android, iPhone, and Web. Unpinning a chat is pretty much the same way, follow the same steps and unpin the chat. In my case, I’ve pinned the chat of my wife, my mom and my boss. What about you? Let us know in the comments below.
