WhatsApp doubles group limit with up to 512 participants
By MYBRANDBOOK
WhatsApp is now increasing the group size limit from 256 people to 512 people. The change has now started rolling out to users with the latest beta update on Android, iOS, and the desktop.
It arrives with WhatsApp beta version 2.22.12.10 on Android and version 22.12.0.70 on iOS. The feature is expected to soon arrive on the stable version of the app as well. Users can sign up for the beta program to try it out.
In an official announcement, WhatsApp wrote, “One of the top requests we’ve consistently received is the option to add more people to a chat, so now we’re slowly rolling out the ability to add up to 512 people to a group.”
Lately, WhatsApp rolled out many features, including iMessage-style emoji reactions, increased file sharing limit, new voice note features, and more. The instant messaging platform has been testing a feature which allows one to edit their messages on the app.
The feature will enable a user to edit his/her messages for any spelling errors or wrong inputs and will soon be made available to Beta users. Another feature which allows users to discreetly exit groups is also under development.
