WhatsApp has released a new stable update for iPhone with new features. Version 23.7.83 gives admins more control over joining new members by enabling the “Allow New Members” option in the group settings. The feature was only available on Android.
Also, the new version of the app now increases the participant limit for groups that support up to 1,024 people, and also allows public groups to be discovered when searching with a contact.
Another feature available to everyone is the creation of personalized stickers, which can be done by cropping photos from Apple’s Photos app. This should give users more options to express their emotions and make conversations more fun.
The update is rolling out gradually and it may take several weeks for everyone to receive the update. It is recommended that you keep the app up-to-date and be aware of upcoming app releases to access new features.
How does confirming participants work in WhatsApp groups?
The post members feature on WhatsApp is a group setting that helps admins manage approval of new members. When this setting is enabled, any new member wishing to join the group must be approved by an administrator before being added to the group.
Even if they have the group invite link, they will be directed to the “Pending Members” section where an admin can review their request to join. This helps ensure that only desired members are added to the group and helps prevent spam messages asking the admin to add people to the subgroup.
With the setting turned off, anyone with the invite link can join the group without approval, which can cause problems for community admins who want to control who can join the group.
