WhatsApp Beta Lets You Change Group Admin on Windows Phone

Changing a group admin in WhatsApp group had been a long time pain. Many a times when the person who creates the group leaves, or switches the number leaving the group stranded as no new members can now be included. The only workaround for this was to make everybody leave except one including the admin. That would make the last person left as Group admin. Painful.

Good news is that WhatsApp is working on it, and the feature has been sited on Windows Phone version. It allows you to make anybody in the group as admin, making it easy for users to quit, for any reason including bored of adding people on demand. You will need to long press on a persons profile, and select  “make group admin”

Here is a bonus news for all of you. It will now be also possible to see who is typing in a group chat. I am pretty sure, this will go haywire when you get multiple users typing at the same time.

We hope the updates to be rolled out soon. What do you think of this feature? What else are you looking for? Share in the comments. Via WMPU
