In a recent announcement, WhatsApp developers unveiled a series of innovative features tailored primarily for channel owners and administrators. The objective behind these updates is to enhance the diversity of subscriber interaction and inject a new level of interest into the messaging experience.
1. Voice Messaging Capabilities
Channel owners can now go beyond traditional text messages, introducing a dynamic element with the ability to share voice messages. Remarkably, the messenger witnesses the exchange of up to 7 billion voice messages globally each day, emphasizing the growing convenience and user preference for this communication format.
2. Expanded Administrative Limits
A significant development includes an expansion in the number of channel administrators, allowing for a total of 16 individuals to manage and oversee channel activities effectively.
3. Poll Functionality and Status Sharing
Channels now boast the inclusion of a poll function, previously limited to group settings. Additionally, WhatsApp users can share channel posts directly to their status. The option to forward chats or images from a channel to other users further enriches the user experience.
NIX Solutions notes that these innovative features are readily accessible to users of the current WhatsApp version across all supported platforms.
