The trick is to put the appropriate symbols at the beginning and end of the target word or sentence. Here\u2019s how:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To bold text, put an asterisk (*testing123* = <\/span><b>testing123<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To italicise text, put an underscore ( _testing123_ = <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">testing123<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To strikethrough text, put a tilde ( ~testing123~ = <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">testing123)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To monospace text, put three backticks (\u2019\u2019\u2019testing\u2019\u2019\u2019)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alternatively, you can tap on the text you\u2019re entering in the text field, and choose the desired format from the ensuing pop-up.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quickly Quote A Message To Respond To<\/span><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41015\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41015\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-41015 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/whatsapp-reply.jpg\" alt=\"whatsapp text options menu\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/whatsapp-reply.jpg 800w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/whatsapp-reply-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/whatsapp-reply-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/whatsapp-reply-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/whatsapp-reply-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/whatsapp-reply-265x198.jpg 265w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41015\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Andre Chan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Often we want to reply to a specific message out of all the chat bubbles that come flooding in our chat window. Quoting a message is one of the best WhatsApp text tricks to ensure a better conversation flow. The standard way to do so is to double-tap or long-press on a particular chat bubble and choose <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reply<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from the drop-down menu, but that would be a second or two too long.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, just swipe any chat bubble to the right and the message will be instantly quoted. It\u2019s much faster this way, and every second or two you save adds up in the long run.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make Your Messages Disappear<\/span><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41011\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41011\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-41011 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/19.jpg\" alt=\"whatsapp disappearing messages text tricks\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/19.jpg 800w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/19-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/19-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/19-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/19-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/19-265x198.jpg 265w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41011\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Andre Chan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know that you can now send messages that automatically disappear after seven days?

Courtesy and etiquette still apply and it is in the best interest of everyone to make the WhatsApp space a pleasant one to use, not only for others but also for yourself. On top of WhatsApp text tricks and functionality tips, every user should also know some of the basic etiquettes when conversing online. Below are just some of the golden rules that you should adhere to when you are on WhatsApp:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid sending streams upon streams of one-word messages when you can put everything into a single text.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid cliff-hangers. Always try to reply to pending messages as soon as possible.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not spam your WhatsApp groups with irrelevant messages. Always stick to the purpose of the group.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid having one-on-one conversations in any WhatsApp group. Send a private message to the individual instead.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always ask for permission from a contact before adding him\/her to a WhatsApp group.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not bring arguments, heated opinions, and drama into a WhatsApp group.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid being the \u201csilent lurker\u201d who reads every message but does not respond at all. Respond occasionally.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Politely excuse yourself if you intend to leave a WhatsApp group.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not simply forward information and news you receive. Inaccurate info and fake news cause nothing but harm. It can also get you in trouble with the law. Better yet, just don\u2019t forward at all.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always verify the authenticity of any info before sharing it with your contacts.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everyone Can Improve Their Chatting Experience By Utilising These WhatsApp Text Tricks And Etiquette Guide<\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41008\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41008\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-41008 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/16.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/16.jpg 800w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/16-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/16-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/16-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/16-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/shopee.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/16-265x198.jpg 265w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41008\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/@oleg-magni?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Oleg Magni<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/internet-connection-technology-business-2733678\/?utm_content=attributionCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=pexels\">Pexels<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WhatsApp is here to stay in our lives, and we will continue using it daily for many, many years to come.
