Alongside its next release, Meta’s WhatsApp will provide iOS users the ability to pass messages and media across channels.
The instant messaging app is testing a new channel feature with the general public, according to WABetaInfo, with the goal of improving the process of sharing files and messages.
Channel owners may easily forward messages, images, videos, and graphics interchange formats (GIF) from any channel to their own channel with this capability.
Owners of WhatsApp channels can experiment with this capability by forwarding messages from their preferred channels and receiving them by choosing their own channel in the forwarding picker page.
This feature improves the way information is exchanged across various channels by enabling users to pass updates directly to their channels without the need for intermediary procedures.
This functionality was exclusively unveiled for Android users last week. But as of right now, all iOS users may get it as part of the “WhatsApp for iOS 24.13.79 update,” according to WABetaInfo.
It’s crucial to remember that in the upcoming weeks, this functionality will be applied to a few accounts.
In the event that this update leaves you without this feature, it is also advisable to update WhatsApp often via the App Store and the TestFlight app.
