It’s quite often that your boss will contact you even during your vacations or holidays to do “important, absolutely necessary” work with WhatsApp. While you can always leave the work group, this will definitely notify your boss (who is probably the admin) and archiving the group doesn’t mute notifications either, but soon you may be able to mute these notifications without letting him or anyone know with the WhatsApp “Vacation Mode” or as it is likely to be known “Ignore archived chats”.
What this does is that it lets you remain as a member of the group, but mute notifications, stopping them from appearing at the top of your message feed without notifying anyone (or your boss). Initially found last year in November, the folks at WABetaInfo have found that it could be in the latest WhatsApp beta for Android (version 2.19.101) along with a few other features. These include a submenu for your archived chats and the aforementioned “Ignore archived chats” feature.
No exact Malaysia release dates on when this new boss muting WhatsApp feature may arrive but it’s very likely to be soon, so stay tuned to TechNave.com and we'll keep you updated.
