By -

WhatsApp recent update to version 1.5 now brings Group Chat feature which allows you to talk bunch of other users using the same app.  Unless you have been living under a rock, WhatsApp is a free texting app which bypasses native messaging service and lets you send sms to anybody using the same App.

Group Chat in WhatsApp

How to Create group and Add users  :

  • Tap on the menu bar and look for option which says Group Chat.
  • Next Add a name of the group and add participant using the contact picker.
  • Once done everybody will be invited to that group where you can type or send a Voice Message.
  • To delete a contact from the group, long press a contact when you are in chat mode and you will get an option to do that. Oddly this option should have been in where I add the contact in the group because this will be like kicking a person out of the conversation or may be its there for that.
  • Group name gets listed under Chats section though I was hoping a dedicated screen for this.
