In the upcoming update, admins will have more privacy controls over who joins their groups using the invite link and in open Communities. Additionally, group members will now be able to view which groups they have in common with their contact lists.

Users can easily search for the name of a friend in their contact list to see which groups they have in common.

According to Meta, the new additional tools will begin rolling out globally in the coming weeks, as the platform promises to strive to make group conversations the 'best experience' for members and admins alike.

Moreover, WhatsApp is an internationally available freeware, cross-platform, centralized instant messaging, and voice-over-IP service owned by US tech conglomerate Meta. As it allows users to send text and voice messages, make voice and video calls, and share images, documents, user locations, and other content.
