“I am delighted to collaborate with WhatsApp for the launch of WhatsApp Channels.
Our partners are equally excited to create their WhatsApp Channels and connect with their followers. Channels can be found in a new tab called Updates on WhatsApp – where you’ll find Status and channels you choose to follow – separate from your chats with family, friends, and communities. We’re also welcoming some of your favourite celebrities, sports teams, artists, creators, thought leaders that people can follow, right within WhatsApp.Ĭhannels are a one-way broadcast tool for admins to send text, photos, videos, stickers, and polls. Today we have launched WhatsApp Channels in India and will deliver a private way for people to receive updates that matter to them.
