WhatsApp makes group function much better

WhatsApp keeps changing or expanding functions that have become more relevant over time. Recently, the company has massively expanded the groups, so that the details now have to be improved. This is exactly what is currently happening in the latest trial version of WhatsApp for Android. In the final rollout, the change should also be implemented for iOS.

WhatsApp expands group function

WhatsApp has recently massively expanded the group function. It should no longer only be used for communicating with family and friends, but also by huge groups and companies. To accommodate this, WhatsApp made two changes to groups in the beta version of Android. The Title and description of a group can now be much longer. The title can now have 100 instead of 25 characters. In the description 2,048 instead of 512 characters (source: WABetaInfo). This gives large groups and companies more space to introduce themselves and share important information.

The new WhatsApp function is currently being rolled out in beta version 2.23.3.9 for Android and should be available to all users of the test version in the near future. As usual, it can always take a while for the latest version to get to you, so you may not be provided with it until a little later. Since WhatsApp the group function is increasingly coming into focus and more attractive to more people, the change comes at the right time. The competition from Telegram and Signal is fierce and has long offered many of the features that WhatsApp is only just introducing.

WhatsApp releases status function

Also in the WhatsApp beta for Android you can now make a voice status. If you just want to say something to your friends or family but don’t want to show them, you can now share a voice message about their status.
