WhatsApp Prepares to Bring Discord-Like Feature

WhatsApp is a product of Meta that is constantly updating and adding useful features. When we look back, there is no trace of WhatsApp, which we used until the mid-2010s, which can only be messaged. The application, which has changed quite a lot when it comes to business accounts, stickers, voice and video calls, seems to be facing another big development.

Earlier, there were claims that a feature called Communities would come. This feature, which XDA developers first noticed, was used to create communities where groups became channels. Similar findings now WABetaInfo reached.

Large scale of groups Communities

WABetaInfo has found findings on what WhatsApp will probably call Communities in Turkish. These findings, which support the claims made in October, are very simple to put it simply. larger scale chat groups It will bring an air of Discord to the platform by creating it.

Even if you don’t use Discord, you’ve seen and heard it; When you join a group, you will see channels with different titles belonging to the group. The same is true for business Slack. There may be separate channels and more general, common channels for different departments or different tasks. It looks like WhatsApp will get exactly this feature as well. While the authorities of the administrators increased with the arrival of the Communities feature, channels in a community will be like current groups.

We do not know exactly how communities differ from groups in appearance. All we know is that unlike group photos, which are round, community photos will be square. Information about the in-chat appearance will be revealed with future leaks or directly with the launch of the feature. There is not the slightest information about the date when the Communities feature will be available.
