WhatsApp has a feature that makes it easier to notify your contacts when you change your phone number. You can also choose to disable this feature as well so your contacts will not be alerted when you change your WhatsApp number. However, if you want to alert only some select contacts about your new number, this lets you do that too. It allows you to notify all contacts, contacts that you have chats with or any particular contact. Here’s how you can use this feature on your phone.
