In this way, you can listen to your voice message secretly and much more clearly. All thanks to the WhatsApp and the proximity sensor which is on the top of your smartphone.

Simply tap and hold on the group or the name of the person whose chat you wish to pin(bookmark) and then tap on the pin icon at the top of the WhatsApp screen.
For iPhone users just swipe towards right on the chosen chat or group and select the pin option.
Similarly, you can unpin the chats later when not in need.
Starred Messages

To bookmark the message, just tap and hold the message from your chat and then tap on the star icon at the top of the WhatsApp window. All your starred messages get encapsulated in the Starred Messages folder which you can access from the 3-dots menu option in Android and via Settings tab on iPhone.
Check Whom You Burn Your Data the Most
You may be chatting and sharing media files with many of your friends on the WhatsApp, but if you ever wanted to check with whom you actually chat and share things the most thereby spending most of your internet data, then go to Settings > Data and storage usage > Storage usage and you'll see the list of people you chatted with most, in descending order.
