WhatsApp will show who has passed through your groups in the past

Some time ago the news broke in Spain: WhatsApp would add a function so that the members of a group they could quietly slip out of them. A novelty received with grace due to the problem of leaving a group and letting everyone know it. Now, we know more details about its counterpart: the feature to know who has left a group.

As revealed WABetaInfo, There are already more details of the function to be able to see the past members of a group. At first this new update could be seen in the version of WhatsApp for Android, but now the portal has published screenshots referring to the version for iOS.

These captures prove several of the most worrying details that were glimpsed when the novelty was uncovered. One of them, for example, is that all users in the group will be able to see this menu, something that can be a problem for those who want to leave a group due to certainly sensitive issues.

You will leave a mark on the group

WhatsApp will include a special menu to be able to search for past participants. In said interface, WhatsApp will include a specific search engine and a listing of all past participants. Basically, this was already an idea that many did not like, but the new details make it more difficult for some to justify.

For example, the list shows the exact date and time in which the user left. Additionally, this list includes participants who either left the group or were removed from the group in the last 60 days. In other words, WhatsApp gives a margin of two months so that anyone can see who has left the group at the exact moment.

Homicronous

Initially, the users who requested this novelty specified that the ideal is that only administrators could manage this list. WABetaInfo specifies that most likely any member of the group will be able to see this list. Something that collides head-on with the possibility of leaving a group without leaving a trace.

The fact that screenshots of the iOS version have been published indicates that WhatsApp It gets closer every time to release this update, which for now is only available in the latest betas. This also opens the door for WhatsApp to make changes to this new feature in case users complain about it.
