The message forwarding on whatsapp It is a very useful function for some users who want to transmit certain communications with a large number of contacts, quickly and easily for all parties involved. However, they are not always used for a good purpose. And it is that, because of their “fault”, some fake news and viral chains have been helped to spread and propagate very quickly. Now, the company seeks to mitigate these effects and a new message forwarding limit is proposed on WhatsApp.
What will this new message forwarding limit be on WhatsApp?
A new WhatsApp beta It is responsible for us having seen what the new claims of the instant messaging app are. Until now, we can share a message marked as very forwarded to five contacts.
But, now, WhatsApp tests the option of forward a message only to a group. What will happen if we want to forward it to more than one group? Simply, the app will recognize if it is a “very forwarded” message and will not allow us to share it with more than one group. If we want to do it, because we really consider that it is information of interest, we will have to resort to manually writing the message and we will be the ones who start a new chain.
When will it come into force?
For now, it is only an option included in the WhatsApp beta for android that some users are already testing. As usually happens in these cases, the process of implementing a new function begins with these tests in the betas, before being approved. Therefore, it is possible that it will never be implemented, although, taking into account the previous actions of WhatsApp in its attempt to fight fake news, it is very possible that this option will arrive in the coming weeks.
