WhatsApp has recently expanded its event feature beyond communities, now making it available to all group chats. This new feature allows users to easily create and manage events within their group chats, whether it’s an online meeting or a social gathering. Here’s what you need to know about this exciting update:
– Previously limited to communities, the event feature is now rolling out to all group chats with the latest WhatsApp beta for Android update (2.24.14.9) on the Google Play Store.
– Users can create events in regular group chats by entering details such as name, description, date, location, and specifying whether a voice or video call is required.
– Members of the group chat can see the invitation and accept it once the event is created, with the ability for the event creator to update details as needed.
– These events are end-to-end encrypted, ensuring that only participants in the conversation can view event details and related communications.
The expansion of this feature to regular group chats aims to simplify event organization and coordination for users. WhatsApp is dedicated to enhancing user experience in group chats by introducing new features like event reminders and cover photo options for group chats in future updates.
Currently available to some users who have installed the latest WhatsApp beta for Android updates from the Google Play Store, this new event feature for group chats is expected to reach more users in the coming days. Stay tuned for more updates on how this feature can streamline your event planning within WhatsApp group chats!
