WhatsApp will soon allow users to leave a group discreetly without notifying other users. Ideal for those who do not want to stay under the radar. Links posted in conversations are also going to be enhanced with a preview.
When a user leaves a conversation on WhatsApp, the whole group is notified via a notification that appears in the chat. It is painful both for members of large groups who are sometimes spammed, but also for those who want to remain discreet when leaving. Not everyone needs to know you’re packing up!
However, it will soon be possible to exit a group conversation without telling others. It is WABetaInfo, which scrutinizes the betas of the application, which tells us today.
Soon, it will be possible to leave a group without notifying the other members. Only administrators will be notified. A good thing. Remember that WhatsApp allows up to 256 people in a group. Large-scale discussions are therefore often spammed with messages such as “John has left the conversation”.
You can now leave Whatsapp groups quitely
Moreover, WhatsApp will include another novelty to its application according to WABetaInfo: previews when you post a link. Today, only the URL appears in the conversation, so you have to click to find out more or try to guess with the text. From now on, users will be able to have a small preview, like an image, to know where they will go. Something that already exists on other messaging services, such as Messenger or Discord, but was sorely lacking in WhatsApp.
Gizchina News of the week
When will these two features be available? That’s the big question. WhatsApp never communicates about future new things to come, but they should appear sometime in an update.
A short time ago, these were the reactions to the messages that arrived on the service. Long awaited, they have long been in beta, but now everyone can have access to them. WhatsApp therefore continues to improve in small steps to try to satisfy users who are increasingly tempted by the competition.
Recently, WhatsApp users have received Reactions. The announcement of the feature took place originally on April 14 along with a number of other features that should be available in the coming weeks.
Reactions allow you to quickly reply to WhatsApp messages using emoji. As the developers explain, users will be able to quickly convey their emotions without overloading the chat with new messages. At first, six different emojis are available as “Reactions”: the already familiar “like”, folded hands, a heart and faces – laughing, crying and surprised.
