WhatsApp group admins get more control over group privacy

WhatsApp is introducing a number of new tools that make group chats more manageable for group managers. For example, administrators must have more control over group privacy.

More control group admin

Meta – the parent company of Facebook and WhatsApp, among others – comes with a number of new functions for WhatsApp. The company reports in a message. The functions are mainly aimed at giving group administrators more control. These are common groups or Communities. You can read more about this in this article.

Administrators must therefore gain even more control over a group. Meta has developed a tool that makes it easier for administrators to determine who can or cannot become a member of a group. Here’s how it works: When an admin of a group decides to share an invitation link from the group, he can now control who can or can’t join the group by manually approving or disapproving them. This same option should appear if you, as an administrator, want to make the group available to everyone within a community.

The group administrators can now manage the group even better and decide more easily who can join the group. In terms of privacy, this can be nice, because there can be natural personal things in such a conversation.

Easier search and availability

In addition, WhatsApp wants to make it easier for you to know which groups you have in common with someone. When you look up a contact’s name later, you will see all common groups in the search results at once.

Meta indicates that the new tools will be rolled out globally in the coming weeks. The company also indicates that they are working on even more new features to continue to improve Communities and the overall experience of the app.
