One of the most widely used encrypted messaging platforms nowadays is WhatsApp. The Meta-owned app has more than 2 billion users worldwide, despite not having the same attraction with US users as other platforms.

With that level of popularity, your ordinary user may have enough conversations that you need to manage them. Either there are people you no longer chat to on the app, or the volume of conversations gets too large to navigate. In any event, follow these instructions to save and retrieve WhatsApp conversations.

How to hide WhatsApp chats on iPhone

On an iPhone, there are a couple of ways that you can hide your chat messages:

• Long-press on the conversation that you wish to hide and select Archive in the pop-up that appears.
• Swipe from right to left on the chat until the Archive appears; releasing at this stage will archive the chat.
