In practice, administrators will be able to allow new members to see messages sent within the past 24 hours.
Joining a new group on WhatsApp can be a difficult experience. Conversations are ongoing, and understanding context can be a daunting task. However, the popular messaging app is about to launch a new tool that promises to simplify this situation, giving beginners access to the last 24 hours of messages from the moment they join the group.
The news was published by the WaBetainfo website, which specializes in providing information about WhatsApp updates. According to them, the functionality is currently in the testing phase and should be integrated into the official release in the coming months.

How will the new tool work?
The proposed update will display an options screen for the group admin, indicating that recent history sharing is turned on. However, the option to disable it will also be available. This ensures that the groups retain some degree of control over the new functions.
Benefits for users and administrators
The introduction of this tool will benefit both administrators and users. For administrators, this means that they no longer have to frequently send important messages or directions to new members.
For new members, this function will be a valuable help in understanding what is being discussed in the group, even if they have just joined. This will make it easier to engage in conversations and build relationships with other group members, making the overall experience more enjoyable and productive.
