How to Find and Follow WhatsApp Channels

Just like on Telegram, WhatsApp has just recently introduced Channels on their platform. WhatsApp Channels are a new way to receive important information from organizations, interest groups, or societies. Unlike normal WhatsApp groups, WhatsApp Channels supports one-way communication where only the Channel’s admin will be able to send messages. This means that all members of the channel will be able to see the messages sent but cannot reply or send their messages.

Also, the phone numbers of the channel members are not visible to other members or the admins. In a previous related article, we discussed how to find channels on Telegram. This piece highlights how you can find and follow WhatsApp channels.

To find WhatsApp Channels:

  • Update your WhatsApp app to the latest version
