WhatsApp Allows Individual Users Mute, Message Other Participants In A Group Call: Here Are The Steps

whatsapp privacy features

Highlights

  • WhatsApp new udpate allows individual users mute and message other users in a group chat
  • Feature available for both Android and iOS users

WhatsApp has gradually transitioned into one of the essential models of modern-day communication. WhatsApp has evolved its platform for not just personal but also group conversations. The brand has added a slew of features to both its Android and iOS mobile application in the last few weeks. The company seems to be majorly improving the group chat feature with the new updates. Earlier, the company released manual request approval for the new users in any group chat. Now, the company is making it easy for individual group users to mute other participants. What is this new feature and how can you use it? The steps are mentioned below:

WhatsApp New Update For Group Chats

WhatsApp Android and iOS app is now getting a new feature that will allow users to mute other participants in the group and also text them if they have forgotten to mute their mic. This new option’s availability has been revealed by WhatsApp Chief, Will Cathcart via Twitter.

We have seen multiple scenarios in group calls or meetings conducted via WhatsApp group chat where one or the other member have to continue with their personal chores without muting the mic. A personal phone call or message at times is required to make such users aware of the situation.

In other scenarios, such unmuted accounts can also create an echo during the ongoing calls. But to improve the overall group calling experience, WhatsApp has introduced this new feature wherein individual users will get the right to mute different participants individually. WhatsApp is eventually giving more dynamic control to the individual users in the group.

How To Mute Users Individually In A WhatsApp Group Chat?

Step 1: Open the WhatsApp app on any Android or iOS device. If in case you already are in a group call, follow the steps below.

Step 2: From the user profile tiles in the group, press and hold the user badge whom you want to mute or message.

Step 3: Select the “Mute” option if in case you want to mute the user.

Step 4: If you wish to text the user, select the “Message” option.

That’s all the steps you need to perform to mute or message any group user individually if they somehow have forgotten to mute themselves.

Sending images and videos is one of the important features that is offered by WhatsApp. Users also have the provision to edit images and add highlights or texts while sending any image to their contacts.

WhatsApp also lets users add captions to any media being sent to their contacts. If you are a frequent WhatsApp user, you must have shared photos with your friends and other contacts and also forwarded the received media. But WhatsApp only allowed forwarding images and not the caption.

That’s not the case anymore. WhatsApp has already released an update that will let users forward images without losing the caption. Both Android and iOS smartphone users can use the latest feature that lets users forward photos along with captions. Are there any specific steps that you need to perform to share WhatsApp images with captions? Or the method is the same as the general media forwarding? Read on to know:
