San Francisco: Meta-owned WhatsApp is reportedly working on a new feature on Android called Admin Moderation, which will provide group admins with tools to help them better manage their groups.
According to WABetaInfo, when the feature is enabled, group members will be able to report specific messages to group admins.
If an admin believes a message is inappropriate or violates the group rules, they can choose to delete the message for everyone in the group when a member reports it.
According to reports, the new option will be available in the group settings section in the future.
Additionally, the report mentions that reported messages will only be visible to group admins in a new section of the app (inside group information).
The ability to report messages to group admins is in the works and will be available to beta testers in a future app update, the report said.
Meanwhile, WhatsApp is reportedly rolling out a new “side by side” feature on Android tablets for some beta testers.
This feature will allow users to switch between conversations without losing the chat they were in, giving more control over the WhatsApp interface on their Android tablet.
Users can also disable side-by-side view by toggling the option available in WhatsApp Settings > Chat.
