WhatsApp Forwarding Info: What Is It, How It Works It usually happens that WhatsApp brings features to iOS first and then to Android, and with the new features too, the company will follow that. With the Forwarding Info and Frequently Forwarded features, WhatsApp is trying to make the forward message experience better, as it has been trying to do it since the last one year. With the Forwarding Info feature, WhatsApp will let users get more details about the messages that have been forwarded. This feature will work similar to Message info. The Forwarding Info will allow users to know the number of times the message has been forwarded. It is worth noting that the message info will be available only for the sent messages. How does the feature work? To use the Forwarding Info feature, the user will need to click on Message Info of the forwarded message and that how the user will know the number of times the message has been forwarded.

Reportedly, the Facebook-owned instant messaging platform wants to introduce this feature to help the user understand whether the message they have received is popular or not. It is worth noting that if a message is Frequently Forwarded the user will not be able to check the Forwarding Info – or the number of times the message has been forwarded. As of now, there’s no information when will these forward features come to stable iOS build.
