WhatsApp may be bringing Communities to its iOS business app soon: all the details here
Good news for iPhone users that the popular Meta-owned instant messaging app WhatsApp is looking to bring communities to its WhatsApp Business app for iOS.
According to WhatsApp-tracking website WABetaInfo, the Meta-owned platform is likely to add a new entry point for the new feature in the app’s settings, rather than removing the Business Tools tab introduced last year.
The new feature will give businesses access to the entire list of communities they’ve previously joined, including their subgroups and community announcement groups, the report said.
Additionally, companies can create a new community in this section. The new feature is useful for businesses as they can easily take feedback from their customers by creating special communities and subgroups.
The ability to create and manage communities on WhatsApp Business is currently under development and is expected to roll out in an upcoming update to the app, the report added.
Last month, it was reported that the company was working on the same feature for Android. In November last year, the messaging platform had announced new features to enhance users’ trading experience and help them connect with their brands and discover new products on the platform.
In the meantime, is releasing at least 8 custom emojis and 21 new emojis on its platform. The new emojis are now available to some beta testers who install the latest updates of WhatsApp beta for Android from the Play Store and will be available in the coming days.
According to the report, it is now possible to send these 21 emojis from the latest Unicode 15.0 directly using the official WhatsApp keyboard, so you no longer need to download and use another keyboard to send them.
