WhatsApp recently started rolling out the much-awaited message reactions feature for people globally but it isn’t the only change that will reach all users.
The Meta-owned messaging platform has also announced that it will soon increase the member limit per WhatsApp Group.
A recent blog post reveals that WhatsApp will soon let users add up to 512 members to a group. This will be twice the current limit of 256 members for one WhatsApp group.
The ability has started rolling out slowly to users, and we expect it to reach all Android and iOS users soon.
This will be a welcome change for many, especially for organizations that tend to include a large group of people. Still, it is less than the huge 20,000 member limit available on Telegram, which is another popular messaging platform.
Besides this, WhatsApp has also started rolling out the ability to send files up to 2GB in size, which will be end-to-end decrypted. This will be a significant increase from the 100MB file size limit that was set previously.
