WhatsApp is testing a new feature that will greatly improve the experience of using group chats, this feature is under testing, according to a report by WABetaInfo.
According to the report, WhatsApp is testing a feature that will allow mentioning everyone in a group chat. Under this feature, users will be able to tag every individual in the group chat at once by using ‘@everyone’.
Currently, in group chats, every individual has to be mentioned separately, which takes a lot of time, and there is also the possibility that some names might not be mentioned.
But with this single mention feature, every member of the group will receive a notification, even if someone has muted the chat. This feature will prove to be more useful in large groups where it is necessary to deliver important updates to all members at the same time.
According to the report, this feature will make it easier in large groups and community chats to convey your message to every individual. Similarly, this new feature will not be limited to group admins only, but any member will be able to access the entire group.
However, group admins will have the option to restrict it. This feature has appeared in the beta version of WhatsApp and is available only to limited users there. It is still difficult to say when this feature will be introduced for all users.
