The first image of the WhatsApp channel was published. This feature is similar to the channels in Telegram, with which you can create your own media.
There is no doubt that WhatsApp is doing whatever it takes to remain the most popular messaging app in the world. The fact is that many users around the world use this messenger for their personal and business communication. But when we compare it with some other messengers like Telegram, it is behind them in terms of the number of features.
Due to this issue, Meta Company, as the owner of WhatsApp, is trying to add more features to this application. But apparently, some of these new features are similar to those of competing applications. For example, sometimes we see WhatsApp developing new features that are inspired by Telegram or Signal. One of these is the poll feature that was recently introduced and something similar has been in Telegram for years. In addition, recently disappearing messages have been added to WhatsApp, which was first introduced by the Signal application.
But now, according to the WaBetaInfo website, this company will soon add another new feature to WhatsApp, apparently inspired by Telegram. Ironically, this is also the most popular feature of Telegram.
Wait for the presence of channels on WhatsApp
If you are a Telegram user, you are definitely familiar with Telegram channels. You should wait for WhatsApp channel soon. This feature was previously supposed to be offered under the name of Private Newsletter; But now its name has been changed to WhatsApp Channels. WhatsApp channels are designed with the aim that users or media can provide their news and information to the public. Joining them is exactly the same as in Telegram.
A screenshot of the WhatsApp channel feature, which is still under development, has been published, where you can clearly see the word “Channels”. In this screenshot, the Status tab has also been changed to Updates. This tab has also changed its status from vertical to horizontal and has moved to the top of the screen like Instagram stories.
It is not yet clear when we will be able to use channels on the WhatsApp messenger.
