The popular messaging platform WhatsApp has begun rolling out the ability to mute group conversations automatically when they exceed a certain number of participants. This action is taken with the aim of reducing noise in these groups.
This apps activated the communities at the beginning of November, so that users can connect several groups under the same “umbrella”. This novelty was accompanied by an update for the groups, which now admit more than 1,000 participants.
Being able to be so crowded, the notifications of the actions of the members of a group conversation can generate too much noise, and not make it easy to follow what is in it, details Europe Press. For this reason, WhatsApp is working on the function that will allow you to silence it.
The novelty, which the company has been working on for some time, has begun to be deployed in the Android app version 2.22.24.15within the Google Play Beta program, as reported by the portal WABtainfo.
