After “Communities” .. “WhatsApp” launches the “Channels” feature to expand the scope of communication

The instant messaging application “WhatsApp” announced the launch of a new feature under testing called “Channels”, which allows the ability to send messages to a large number of users in order to expand communication, similar to the community feature that was launched months ago.

The application stated, according to the specialized “wabetainfo” website, that the new feature allows sending messages to an unlimited number of followers joining one of the user-owned channels, while preserving privacy by encrypting messages with the End-to-end Encryption feature.

He added that it will also allow the ability to search for channels and access them through their unique identifier, as the ability to send messages will be limited to channel owners, while members will be able to view messages and interact with them with emojis.
