WhatsApp released system updates for their group conversations. There are at least six new WhatsApp features introduced in this latest update.
"The Group has always been an important part of the WhatsApp experience, as a glue for family members around the world or to communicate with childhood companions," writes WhatsApp in his official blog released on CNNIndonesia.com Wednesday, 16/5/2018.
Here are six WhatsApp features for the group:
The first new feature is :
The group description that can be found in the group info column.
This column serves as a place to write down the goals, guides and topics of the group.
The group information will automatically appear above the group conversation room when new members join.
Shortcut key
The next new feature is the '@' shortcut key to view messages directed directly to users in groups. This feature has actually been out quite a long time through the beta program.
Group member search field
The third new feature is the group member search field. WhatsApp provides a small box on the group information page.
Simply enter the name of relatives or friends who are members of the group, users can find it easily. This feature is very helpful when the group we occupied already contains a lot of members.
Admin control
In his blog, WhatsApp explains in group settings, now there's a control that allows admins to limit who can change group subjects, icons, and descriptions.
Admin revokes the power of another participant's admin
This update becomes the latest WhatsApp group feature. Admin of a group can revoke the admin power from other participants. In addition, the group's creator position is getting stronger because they can not be kicked out of the group they form.
User protection entered the group
Finally, WhatsApp introduces features that make it difficult for group members to come in and out. With this feature users can not go back to the group they have left behind.
Through its official blog, WhatsApp announced all these features can be obtained in the latest version of the application both on Android and iPhone.
