WhatsApp has announced some new features that include Communities, Chat reactions, larger File Sharing, and larger voice calls. The biggest update that WhatsApp is boasting about is the Communities and Chat reactions. Communities will let you add similar groups into a community and where as chat reaction will let you react to chats with an emoji.
Since the last couple of years everyone has been more communicating over online via WhatsApp. WhatsApp has become a must need necessary to communicate with others during the hard times living in a bubble at home. During this time work, school announcements, and even many organizations were relaying on the groups created on WhatsApp. Based on many people’s feedback WhatsApp has finally thought of introducing this feature called “Communities”.
So, what is the difference between a normal group and Community? Community is a group of all the groups that happen to be having a similar interest or topic. As an example we can have a community of the society we are living in which has different groups of apartments in that. We can have a community of a project that has multiple different groups working on different works. This will also give more power to the admins of the Community.
Apart form the Communities we have some other features such as Chat reactions, File Sharing , and Larger voice calls.
- With the chat reactions you can react to a message instead of a single emoji message.
- We have Admin delete option that let’s admin delete unwanted message in a group
- We have File sharing that will let you share files that are big up to 2GB.
- We now can make voice calls with a limit of 32 members in a single call.
All these features will be coming to all the users with in a few weeks and Communities will be taking more time to reach all the users.
