US EditionWhatsApp Is Getting One of Its Best Upgrades in Years — Here Are 3 New Ways to Supercharge Your Group Chats
WhatsApp enhances group chats with member tags, text stickers, and event reminders to improve organization and communication, supporting file sharing up to 2GB, Meta said.
- WhatsApp on Wednesday rolled out three group-chat upgrades—Member Tags, Text Stickers and Event Reminders—as the company said the launch expands tools to help users manage conversations and express context.
- Building on tools added in recent years, the changes include Member Tags for group-specific roles and Event Reminders to help creators notify members about scheduled activities.
- Typing a word into Sticker Search lets users turn nearly any word into a Text Sticker and add it directly to their Sticker packs without sending in a chat.
- WhatsApp said the rollout will be gradual worldwide while the Android beta program tests sharing recent group history and parental controls, which remain under development without wider timelines.
- These updates position WhatsApp to refine shared-space interactions with custom reminders and role labels that reduce missed events and enable uses like communities, role play and fantasy leagues.
