WhatsApp groups is a world as extraordinary as it is fateful They help us solve many communication problems, because we can send the same message to dozens and dozens of people at the same time. But they are also a real nuisance: like a neighborhood patio in which everyone can say anything. Unless it is well moderated.
But the groups have triumphed. And now WhatsApp has the purpose of renewing them. Thus, WABetaInfo has just explained that WhatsApp has launched various updates for WhatsApp beta applications, both for iOS and Android.
After carrying out a thorough analysis, very important developments have been detected in the Groups. A full-fledged revamp of a number of features, expected to be available to common users soon Also for those who don't participate in the program from WhatsApp Beta.
WhatsApp renews groups
The renovation that WhatsApp proposes for groups is very important. WABetaInfo had already indicated on some other occasion that there was the possibility of improvements coming. But the same medium acknowledges that they were not thinking of so many novelties. So we're in luck.
Admins Are Really Important
It seems that, finally, the administrators of WhatsApp groups will have real power.Well, actually we are talking about the creators of the group. These cannot be deleted by other administrators So the creator will have full and ultimate power over the group created by himself.
This action will only be reversed if the party's creator leaves the party on their own. In addition, admins will be the ones to choose whether other participants – administrators or not – can modify the group theme, icon and description.
But this is not all. Within the Search section, you can perform quick searches to find other participants. This is a great feature if the group you are in – participating or managing – is large.
Through this feature, administrators will also have the power to remove someone from the group. Which is undoubtedly a great advance to strike down those who are causing problems. And don't have the slightest intention of leaving.
Notice to Mariners
With this update for groups, when an administrator decides that the only one who can change the icon and information of the group is him, a notification will appear for all the members of the group. As you can see in the screenshot above, it will read: The administrator will only allow administrators to change the information of this group.
Watch out: restrictions on WhatsApp groups
We continue with another important change, which deserves our attention in a special section. Because there are restrictions on WhatsApp groups From this update, administrators will have the power to stop machines. This can undoubtedly be very practical so that, in front of a large group, the participants pay attention to what really matters: the administrator's messages.
When an information group is created, it is common for it to be filled with absurd messages. And that in the end, the relevant information ends up being lost. What the administrator can do is block the chat functions. In such a way that the participants will not be able to write. Nor send memes, GIFs, links, photos, files or any other element that may distract attention from the administrator's message.
A message will announce to the participants that the chat has been disabled and all they can do is read the messages that the administrator or administrators to type.
Logically, this can be a temporary measure, which the person in charge of the group can revert to return to normality In any case, this Settings can only be changed every 72 hours. If a participant needs to write something, she will have to specifically ask the administrator for it.
