What will this new feature look like?
According to WABetaInfo, the feature – which is in development – should reach the beta version of the app for AndroidAnd Iphone (iOS) and desktop in a future update. The functionality will also allow standard accounts to access advanced search filters in the application, similar to what happens in Files The WhatsApp a job. Thus, it will be easier to manage the various chats, which will make the messenger more organized.
It is not possible to say for sure what the final version of the functionality will look like if it has already reached the messenger. However, if you follow the model found by WABetaInfo, the feature will not differ much from the system in Business. Thus, it will be possible, for example, to conduct group chats sent by contacts and from people whom you have not added.
According to what has been revealed so far, there will be four possibilities for grouping: unread conversations, messages sent by contacts, through unsaved contacts and even groups. When you select Unread Chats, for example, all unread chats will appear on the screen – the same goes for the other categories.

Will it change the way notifications work?
If you follow the form applied in The WhatsApp business, the new message filtering feature won’t change how notifications work – that is, they should remain the same for now. The only difference is that the super chat functionality will be fixed in the app interface, allowing users to filter the type of conversation they want to see with a simple tap.
Therefore, when you open the application, you will be able, for example, to browse through conversations that have not yet been read, or content sent by a person who does not have the contact saved on his smartphone.

The feature is still in the development stage – that is, until now most Beta users do not have access to the Super Filter function. For this reason, there is no release date for the novelty, not even a guarantee that it will actually reach the stable version of the application.
