WhatsApp Features

Now WhatsApp Group Admin can send important announcements and information to the users in the group without any interruption. Today, WhatsApp has officially included the one-way broadcast feature replicating the one already present in the popular Telegram and Snapchat Apps. The same was announced in the company official blog post.


Also as per the initial observation, it seems WhatsApp kind of directly cloned the exact feature from Telegram App on how this feature worked. It must be noted that Snapchat also introduced this feature only sometime back and now WhatsApp (owned by Facebook) followed suite.
