6 Promising features by WhatsApp you should know about
24 July 2018 Swetha RaoCan you imagine a day without WhatsApp?
We can’t either, unless we find place as a wild card entry in the Bigg Boss 2 House! WhatsApp keeps us connected to everyone around. It is one amazing medium of entertainment, contact and yes millions of business too. 10 years post launch, WhatsApp finds itself ever updating and increasing in every way to suit the super-fast changing demands
of technology and the society on the whole.
An array of features are being updated every month making it all the more feasible to use by everyone irrespective of their age, place, background etc. And there is not a single month when you don’t hear of a new WhatsApp update. The mighty green icon-ed application has been winning hearts, businesses and a lot more for a decade and more. Here we find six incredible feature updates by WhatsApp you should know for good.
1. Media Visibility – You decide what shows in your gallery!
WhatsApp has come up with this brilliant feature of leaving it to you to decide what media should show in your gallery/photo album and what shouldn’t. There’s just so much you receive on WhatsApp in a day and not everything you know is meant to be shown in your open gallery. You can now download all the images you receive, yet pick on what should stay accessible and viewable in your gallery. This sounds useful in so many ways, your private
and confidential stuff, remains to be private.
2. Labeling forwarded messages – Now you know what’s true.
Yes, you got that right. Forwarded messages are with a label now to tell you which of the messages you receive have been written by your contact or have been just forwarded to you. Helps you know what’s original and what’s not. Saves so much of time as you now know what to give heed to. Also, guys forwarding cheesy lines, she’ll get to know – beware!
3. Send messages – Admins Rule
A great feature as per WhatsApp for official announcements, important information etc., with this activated in a group, only the Admin is allowed to send messages in that group. Try it out and get rid of Family Drama if you’re the Admin, go to Group Info> Group Settings > Send Messages and select Only Admins.
4. Admin Control – He’s the King!
And finally only the Admin gets to decide who can change the group’s settings. Subject, Icons, description, not in every member’s ball game anymore!
5. Demote Admins – You don’t hurt your members
Seems like WhatsApp is too much in favour of our Admins! Here’s another group centric feature which allows Admins to demote other admins of the group to a participant without actually removing them from the group. WhatsApp understands finally, how bad it hurts to be removed from a group.
6. WhatsApp Group Call – Woah! This exists?
You can now have your never ending group conversations over WhatsApp. On both Voice and Video, you can add up to four participants at once and keep up with your gossip sessions without any disturbance.
