WhatsApp announced the Events feature for Communities in May and started beta testing this feature in group chats in June. Later, WhatsApp’s tests included group event announcements in Communities, and now it’s time to work on a timed chat feature for events.
In the latest version of WhatsApp’s Android app, it is possible to find the ability to create timed chats for events within Communities. The screenshot shared by the WABetaInfo site shows the start screen of this chat.
With this feature, community group members will be able to create events with specific start and end times and also add a location and WhatsApp call link to them.
When will WhatsApp roll out its new Communities feature to all its users?
It can be said that this will be especially useful for situations where multiple events need to be scheduled. It is not yet known when WhatsApp will open this new feature to all its users.
