WhatsApp is making it easier than ever to share and join channels with the introduction of a new QR code feature. Available in the latest WhatsApp beta for Android, this feature allows users to generate QR codes for their channels, simplifying the process of inviting others to join.
To access this feature, users simply need to open a channel, tap on the sharing options in the top bar, and select the QR code option. Once generated, the QR code can be scanned by others to quickly access and join the channel.
This streamlined approach eliminates the need for copying and pasting links, making it particularly convenient for in-person interactions. With a quick scan, users can be directed straight to the channel’s content and choose to follow it with a single tap.
QR codes provide a smoother and more efficient way to share information, and this new feature is expected to enhance the overall WhatsApp channel experience. The feature is currently available to beta users on Android and is anticipated to roll out to a wider audience in the coming weeks.
In addition to this update, WhatsApp is also introducing voice message transcripts and experimenting with themed icons for contacts and group chats, further enhancing the app’s functionality and visual appeal.
