WhatsApp is the most popular instant messaging application globally. It has more than 2 billion active users, and its popularity increased exponentially in 2020 due to home confinements by Covid-19. The app became a kind of window with the outside world, through which we could communicate with our friends and family. Well, now a trick has gone viral with which we can know with what name our contacts have saved us on WhatsApp .
The first thing to keep in mind is that it is a trick that is done from the application itself , so we do not have to download any third-party app or anything like that. It is 100% free and, of course, legal. All we need is to use mischief and ingenuity to get the information from the person we are talking to.
What we have to do is the following:
- The first thing is to access WhatsApp and enter the chat of the person we want to know with what name they have saved us.
- Then, with any excuse, we ask you to pass us our contact card . We can tell you that we need it to send it to a co-worker, for example.
- If our contact wants to do it, they have to click on the clip-shaped drawing , located in the lower right part of the chat, and click on «Contact». Find our name, share it with us, and voila!
- So we will see what that person calls us .
Now, it is essential that what you share with us through WhatsApp is the contact card to know the name . Just typing our phone number on the keyboard is not enough. This is something that we must be very clear when asking for it.
News coming to WhatsApp in 2021
Finally, we want to remember the news that will come to WhatsApp very soon .
The first is ephemeral videos and photographs . When we receive a multimedia file of this type, we will only be able to see it once. When we do, it will disappear from the chat forever.
In addition, the app will launch an expanded “disappearance mode”. We can activate it for all chats, not just some.
And finally, multi-device support . WhatsApp will work on up to four different devices at the same time, without the need for the main phone to be nearby and on.
