WhatsApp Inc. has released a new version of their WhatsApp Messenger client for iOS, this time including a simple and straightforward way for users to easily create a collection of their favorite messages by starring the ones they would want to quickly find later.

The "Starred messages" feature included within the WhatsApp Messenger for iOS 2.12.7 version makes it possible for users to promptly add any message in a chat to a convenient set of starred messages.

After being added to the Starred Messages group, they can be searched using the search engine built within the WhatsApp Messenger for iOS, and they will appear in their own section in the search results dialog.

According to the release notes published on the WhatsApp Messenger for iOS 2.12.7 App Store page, in order to browse the messages you have starred for any given chat, you will have to tap on the contact info or group info options.

WhatsApp Messenger is a multi-platform mobile messaging app, designed to make use of your phone’s Internet connection (Wi-Fi or cellular data) to help you call or message your friends and family.

Using WhatsApp you can only keep in touch with your friends if they also have WhatsApp installed on their iPhones.

You can download WhatsApp Messenger for iOS 2.12.7 from Apple's iOS App Store and you can install it on any iPhone that runs iOS 6.0 or later.
