The company has released the feature only for the Android users and there’s no word on when the company will release the update for the iOS platform (sorry iPhone users!). But given that WhatsApp has released the update for Android, an update for iOS shouldn’t be far behind. Till then, the Android users can pin their most important chats on the top and avoid messing up their conversations.
Happy WhatsApp-ing folks!
