UPGRADE: WhatsApp UPGRADE: WhatsApp
Social chat platform WhatsApp says their new updates will ensure that you don’t have to accept unwelcome group invites.
The new privacy setting and invite system can now help you decide who can add you to groups.
To enable it, go to Settings, then tap Account > Privacy > Groups and select one of three options: “Nobody”, “My Contacts”, or “Everyone”.
“Nobody” means you’ll have to approve joining every group to which you’re invited, and “My Contacts” means only users in your address book can add you to groups. The function will become available to those using the latest version.
