Hi everyone! Today we’ll discover a simple but effective trick to improve your WhatsApp conversations: how to start a new line!
You know those long, unreadable messages that look like a wall of text? Well, today we’re saying goodbye to all that! We’ll learn together how to structure your messages with line breaks, spaces, and empty lines to make them clearer, neater, and more pleasant to read.
Whether you’re on a smartphone or WhatsApp Web, it doesn’t matter! This guide will show you step-by-step how to start a new line on WhatsApp, with tricks and shortcuts for every device.
On your Android smartphone’s keyboard, you’ll find a dedicated key for starting a new line. It’s usually in the bottom right and is represented by an arrow. Pressing this key will move the cursor to the next line, allowing you to continue writing your message.
On an iPhone, the “return” key is used to start a new line. Simply press the “return” key. You’ll notice the cursor moves to the next line, ready for you to continue writing.
To start a new line on WhatsApp Web, follow these simple steps:
This key combination works just like the “Enter” key in any text editor: it lets you create a new line without sending the message. It’s especially useful for:
For example, instead of writing:
“Hi! I wanted to ask if you’re free for coffee tomorrow. Let me know if you’re up for it! See you soon.”
You could write:
“Hi!
I wanted to ask if you’re free for coffee tomorrow.
Let me know if you’re up for it!
See you soon.”
The second message, thanks to the use of line breaks, is neater and easier to read, don’t you think?
WhatsApp Web is the web version of WhatsApp that allows you to use the messaging app directly from your computer, without needing to install any software. To access WhatsApp Web, you just need to scan a QR code with your smartphone.
To access WhatsApp Web, follow these simple steps:
Et voilà! Now you can use WhatsApp conveniently from your computer.
With the multi-device feature, you can use WhatsApp on multiple devices at the same time, without needing to keep your phone connected to the internet. This means you can chat from your computer, tablet, and smartphone without having to log out of one device to access another.
Typing on a computer keyboard is much faster and more comfortable than typing on a phone’s keyboard. This allows you to be more productive and save time, especially if you need to write long messages or reply to many chats.
With WhatsApp Web, you can easily access all the files and documents on your computer and share them with your contacts quickly and easily. It just takes one click to attach a document, image, or video to your conversation.
You no longer have to switch devices to reply to messages. With WhatsApp Web, you can communicate smoothly and without interruption, staying focused on your work on the computer.
Formatting messages on WhatsApp, as we’ve seen with the use of line breaks, isn’t just an aesthetic issue. A well-formatted message is easier to read and understand, and this is especially important for long messages or those containing important information.
A well-formatted message, with paragraphs, bullet points, and proper spacing, guides the reader through the text, making the content easier to understand. This is crucial for avoiding misunderstandings and ambiguity, especially when communicating complex or sensitive information.
Text formatting can help you communicate more effectively. For example, you can use bold to highlight keywords, italics to emphasize a concept, or lists to organize information clearly. Effective formatting helps capture the reader’s attention and convey the message more accurately and memorably.
A well-formatted message conveys an image of professionalism and care. This is important in both personal and professional communication. A message with careful formatting shows consideration for the recipient and respect for their time, helping to create a positive impression.
Example of an ineffectively formatted message:
“Hi I wanted to know if you are available for a video call tomorrow afternoon to discuss the project. I have prepared some slides and would like to get your feedback. Let me know if that works for you or if you prefer another day.”
Example of an effectively formatted message:
“Hi,
I wanted to know if you are available for a video call tomorrow afternoon to discuss the project.
I have prepared some slides and would like to get your feedback.
Let me know if that works for you or if you prefer another day.”
In the second example, the message is clearer and easier to read thanks to the use of line breaks and paragraph divisions.
WhatsApp offers several text formatting options, including:
Monospace: to format text as code. You get it by enclosing the text in three backticks (“`). Example: “`text“` becomes text.Use emojis and GIFs to make your messages more expressive and fun. Emojis can help convey emotions and clarify the tone of the message, while GIFs can add a touch of humor or irony. Remember to choose emojis and GIFs that are appropriate for the context and the recipient.
Bulleted and numbered lists help you organize information in a clear and orderly way. They are particularly useful when you need to list a series of items, such as a shopping list, a to-do list, or a series of options to choose from.
If the Enter key isn’t working correctly on WhatsApp Web, try:
If the problem persists, you may need to contact WhatsApp support.
If text formatting isn’t displaying correctly across different devices, make sure that:
For a better typing experience on WhatsApp, you can optimize your smartphone’s keyboard settings. For example, you can:
As we’ve seen, starting a new line on WhatsApp is a simple but essential action for improving the readability and effectiveness of our messages. Whether you’re on a smartphone or WhatsApp Web, remember to use white space, separate paragraphs, and give your text room to breathe.
