There is a new function that has entered the testing phase in WhatsApp, and it promises greater control and organization to group administrators. In particular, when choosing who can or cannot participate in a WhatsApp group. The novelty creates a kind of waiting list for users who wish to join a group through the link.
The new feature was called “Group Membership Approval”, in free translation into Portuguese. In short, it adds a new field that allows administrators to consult who sent a request to participate. It will then be possible to approve or disapprove the entry of these new users.
Approval of WhatsApp group participants
In short, the website WABetaInfo said that users discovered the novelty while operating the beta version of WhatsApp (2.22.14.6) for Android. The portal also said that the functionality must be enabled by administrators. Therefore, it implies that it will not be a standard tool of the application.
As for user approvals, they must occur within the groups themselves, and in the respective area that provides more information about them. Below, check out a screenshot that points out the new feature in action:

In addition, despite the novelty, the tool that turns to the approval or refusal of participants in a WhatsApp group still does not have a set date to officially debut in all applications. Therefore, it is necessary to wait for the official release of the app.
Finally, despite the launch happening only for cell phones that use Android, it is expected that the new function will also be released to devices with iOS.
