WhatsApp announces a new feature: Channels

WhatsApp has announced the release of a new feature called Channels. It is intended to be a reliable, simple and private way to receive news from people and organizations directly on the platform.

El Horizonte points out that, with this, WhatsApp seeks to offer an experience similar to Telegram in which the channels are designed for large audiences that do not interact directly with the sender of the messages.

How will WhatsApp Channels work?

This new feature will replace WhatsApp States and the Channels will be a new one-way transmission tool in which texts, photos, videos, stickers and even surveys can be sent to followers.

Access to the Channels will be obtained through invitation links that will be sent by chat, email or social media posts. It has also been pointed out that anyone can create a Channel because the numbers of the creators and participants will be kept private.
