New feature to block contacts from chat list: WhatsApp developers have added a new feature to the beta version of the app that enables users to block someone from within the chat list. This allows users to easily block unwanted contacts without having to navigate through different menus and settings.

Shortcut to block contacts from notifications: A new report by WABetaInfo suggests that the developers of WhatsApp are also working on a shortcut to block contacts from notifications. This feature is designed to make it even easier for users to block contacts and can be particularly useful for blocking spam messages or unwanted communications.

Visibility of block shortcut only for non-contact messages: The new block shortcut in notifications will only be visible when you receive a message from someone who is not on your contact list. This is a useful feature as it prevents users from accidentally blocking someone while replying to them from the notification panel.

Availability of feature for WhatsApp Beta users via Google Play Beta program: The new feature is currently available to users who have signed up for WhatsApp Beta through the Google Play Beta program. However, it may take a while before it is available to all users. In the past couple of weeks, WhatsApp developers have added numerous new features such as the ability to forward media with captions, support for proxy servers, the ability to report status and end-to-end encrypted status, call and chat indicators, and more. These updates are aimed at improving the user experience and making the app more user-friendly.
