WhatsApp Communities enable you to bring together and organise these separate groups under one umbrella with a structure. So, you can create a WhatsApp Community for the entire organisation and organise smaller discussion groups based on departments or objectives. Project managers within business organisations will also love the new WhatsApp Communities features, as it provides a more structured way to manage their different teams and activities, and indeed everyone working on the project. For example, a club can now create a Community and then have their Exco group, social group, and finance committee group, all exist under that umbrella Community instead of existing as independent groups. Also, WhatsApp Communities will make it easier for a school principal to manage the multiple groups that are necessary for the running of the school (e.g. teachers’ group, parents’ group, school bus drivers’ group, etc) under the school’s umbrella.
New Features That Come With WhatsApp Communities
Along with Communities, WhatsApp has added some new features to Group chats and administration. They include:
Reactions – Emoji reactions are coming to WhatsApp so people can quickly share their opinion without flooding chats with new messages.Admin Delete – Group admins will be able to remove errant or problematic messages from everyone’s chats.File Sharing – We’re increasing file sharing to support files up to 2 gigabytes so people can easily collaborate on projects.Larger Voice Calls – We’ll introduce one-tap voice calling for up to 32 people with all new design for those times when talking live is better than chatting.
If you are responsible for running any form of organisation or group activities and currently run multiple groups, you should be excited about WhatsApp Communities and put it to use as soon as it becomes available to you.
