The features tracker notes that this feature is the replacement of the Archives Chats feature. “Read Later” is an improved version of “Archived Chats”, that includes the Vacation Mode, to keep in your archive all archived chats, even when new messages arrive. But there is more: when a chat is in your “Read Later”, you won’t receive notifications from it,” Wabetainfo said in its blog.

In the screenshot shared by Wabetainfo, WhatsApp explains the feature in a bigger banner. “Archive is now Read later,” the WhatsApp banner reads. As per the Facebook-owned messaging app, the feature helps in “reducing interruptions” only chats with new messages will stay there and you won’t get any notifications.
