Hidden WhatsApp feature reveals top friends

Have you ever wondered which WhatsApp contacts and groups you share the most messages with? Now there's a simple way to find out. A new feature discovered within the settings menu of the messaging service's iOS app reveals which friends bombard you with the most chatter, Digital Spy reports citing The Telegraph.

Users can access the feature by hitting 'Select Storage Usage' within the 'Select Account' subsection of the 'Settings' tab.

Here, you will find the total number of WhatsApp messages you have sent, along with a ranked list of your contacts based on how many you have shared with them.

Users can also find out which friend they have spent the most data messaging, so you can think twice about whether they are worth it.

WhatsApp quietly introduced the feature in June's update 2.12.3. It is unclear whether it will be rolled out to Android devices or Windows Phone.
