WhatsApp on Wednesday announced new features to enhance the group chat experience on its platform. With its latest update, the popular instant messaging app now lets admins decide who can join a group. In addition, it has become easier to check which groups you have in common with other contacts.
New features for WhatsApp groups
As announced by Meta in a blog post, today’s WhatsApp update brings new controls for group admins. For example, admins can choose to allow or deny a new member in a group chat when an invite link is available. “Groups are where people have some of their most intimate conversations and it’s important that admins are able to easily decide who can and cannot come in,” said the company.
