You will now be able to search for your messages on WhatsApp by date. The company announced that it is working on the search feature, making it easier for users to search for particular messages. First reported by WABetaInfo, the feature is still in the alpha stage and there is no launch date for the feature either. Right now, you can search for particular content on your chat box but with the new feature, the company is planning on making it much easier to look for messages.
