In order to give group admins more power and make group navigation easier for all users, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced a number of new updates for groups on his Instagram Broadcast Channel.

One of the primary modifications is a new tool that offers group administrators better control over who can join a group. The admin will now be able to set specific criteria when distributing the invite link or making the group joinable in a community, providing them with more control over the privacy of their group. This enables them to ensure that only vetted people are able to join.

The capability to easily recognize the groups you share with someone is another new feature that will be useful in communities and larger groups where it can be challenging to remember which groups you belong to. It is now much simpler for users to navigate and maintain connections with others, thanks to the ability to search for a contact’s name and view the groups they share.
These new features improve the group and community experience on WhatsApp.

As groups became larger and admins gained the power to remove messages sent in the groups they monitored, WhatsApp recently expanded the number of users allowed in each group. Last year, WhatsApp launched Communities to assist users in getting the most out of their groups.

The communities are larger groups that enable administrators to gather members of several groups in one location, allowing them to send important updates while members stay in touch via group chats.
According to Meta, these new tools are expected to improve group management and enjoyment for both administrators and members. In the coming weeks, these new functionalities will become available to everyone worldwide.
