If you have found the ideal greeting for this New Year's Eve or New Year 2019, we have to give you bad news: WhatsApp does not want you to send it like crazy or crazy to all your contacts. And it is that it is the same formula with which numerous hoaxes, fake news or false news are distributed, chains that do not contribute anything and the rest of the content that spreads like wildfire from conversation to conversation. That is why WhatsApp prohibits mass forwarding.What it does not forbid is creating dissemination lists And therein lies the key.
The only thing you have to do is create a broadcast list on WhatsApp to be able to send the same content comfortably and easily. It has its limitations, of course, such as having to send the message only to individual contacts, or having a list of 256 contacts at most. In addition, only contacts who have added you with your phone number to their address book can receive this message. But it is useful to avoid spending time, effort or fighting against the new barriers of WhatsApp.
Just enter WhatsApp and look at the three dots in the upper right corner on the main screen of the application. It is the menu where the New broadcast option is found, which we will configure next.
The next screen that appears is that of all the contacts we have in WhatsApp. Here you have to choose all the contacts that you want to receive the greeting in question. Remember that you can only select a maximum of 256. Once you have chosen the complete list, click on the green tick button in the lower right corner
The appearance of the following screen is that of any WhatsApp chat. Or rather, from a group chat. At the top are displayed how many recipients (and some of whom) will receive the greeting. At the bottom you have a text box where you can write. Note that you also have options such as voice notes, Emoji emoticons, GIFs, stickers, etc. You can even attach photos, videos, documents or contacts. It is time to write or paste the text of the greeting, or search for the video or postcard that you want to share.
Finally, all that remains is to send the content and understand that this dissemination list is only one way That is, that the content you send they reach different recipients, but if each of them answers you it will be through their individual conversations or chats.
The good thing is that the mailing list is created and anchored in the chat screen as one more conversation. This way you can take advantage of it for new mass announcements, more congratulations in the future, or any resource you need to share massively without the current WhatsApp restrictions.
