New Delhi, Oct 31 (IANS): Meta-owned WhatsApp is reportedly rolling out a message reaction filtering feature for channels on iOS, making it easier for administrators to see which of their contacts have reacted to channel updates.

This feature might enhance interaction and feedback for channel administrators when sharing a new update.

It can also be considered a valuable tool to help them understand which updates grab the attention of their contacts, the report said.
