WhatsApp has introduced a new feature called “phone number privacy” for Android and iOS users.
This feature, currently available in beta, allows users to hide their phone numbers in WhatsApp communities, only making them visible to community admins and saved contacts.
It provides users with greater privacy by concealing their full phone numbers from other participants in the conversation. However, the admin’s phone number will remain visible.
The feature is gradually rolling out to beta users who have installed the latest WhatsApp updates and will be available to more users in the coming days.
Additionally, WhatsApp is reportedly working on a group suggestions feature for communities, enabling admins to approve or reject membership requests quickly.
