WhatsApp tricks: Here's how to delete WhatsApp chats on Android, iOS mobile phones

WhatsApp update: Facebook-owned WhatsApp is undoubtedly one of the famous instant messaging platforms at present. This messaging application made it easier to connect with family and friends by allowing users to chat with up to multiple people at once.

Another reason to clear chat history is also to eliminate critical, personal information. So, if you are planning to clear your chat history on WhatsApp, here’s how you can do it.
