The list format can be used to create a sequence or list of items, such as attendance records or grouping information. This function is similar to the bullet and numbering features in word processors. 

In private conversations, this format is commonly used to create lists. In groups, it's more often used to take attendance.

It's quite easy to do. In the message editing field, type a hyphen (-) to create a bulleted message; for a number, type the number one and a period (1).

If done correctly, the system will automatically create an identity and the list format will be formed immediately.

Now it's time to get into the main discussion: how to easily continue a list in a WhatsApp group. Please note that continuing a list is slightly different from creating one. Here's a guide to doing so: 

  1. Copy the message on WA group which contains the list. Make sure you copy the latest version so that the names of those who have already filled it in don't get lost.;
  2. Paste the message into the message editing field. Place the cursor at the end of the sentence containing the last number/item, then press the 'Enter' key on the keyboard.;
  3. WhatsApp will automatically continue the list to the next number or item. Fill in the information as needed (name, attendance, serial number, etc.).;
  4. Once done, press the 'Enter' button on the keyboard again to provide a new number/item so that other group members can continue the list;
  5. Finally, press the submit button to complete the registration process.

And that's it! You can try it out in a group if you need to fill out a list. Just be aware that this process can take some time for those who aren't used to it.

If you are still studying and the registration process is busy, it is possible that the order you are processing has been preempted by another group member. 

As a result, you may not be able to continue the latest list or even delete other members' entries. It's best to wait until the list is complete or when it's not too busy.
