Whatsapp announced how it plans to see a revamp in Groups that may or may not be included in the community. And that means users could now benefit from audio calls entailing 32 people, 2GB of media file sharing, and message deletion by the admin.
With the new Admin Delete option, group admins could benefit from deleting problematic messages from all members’ chats.
The latest 2GB media file allowance allows so many people to share large files so that collaborating on projects becomes so much easier.
Next up, WhatsApp confirmed how Emoji reactions, very similar to Instagram, could soon be found on the app. In this way, it hopes users can share opinions without having to worry about filling up others’ chats with so many messages.
WhatsApp highlighted through a recent statement by the CEO that the reactions would initially be rolled out with just six emojis. But with time, users would soon be able to benefit from many others. Hence, it wouldn’t be too long to see a change that’s very similar to that offered by Instagram.
