  • Bulleted lists are useful in multiple situations, but most of all, they ensure your texts stay neat. To begin using, add a “-” symbol before your sentence with a space. Like the numbered lists, once you hit enter, you will be able to use these for listing multiple options within the message. 
  • WhatsApp introduced block quotes to highlight a standout sentence within a message. To use this, press the “forward” key with a space and add it before the text you wish to format.
