WhatApp continues to work on this new feature and the Android app beta on its version 2.23.10.14 Something new has arrived with which we can get a better idea of how it works.
The screenshot shared from WaBetaInfo indicates that the status tab will be renamed “Updates” and will be the space for channels and statuses. The channels will ensure that we are informed daily through updates made by their owners.
Privacy in WhatsApp channels
An interesting fact about this new experience is that when a channel is created, privacy will always be protected, because the subscribers of these channels they won’t be able to see your name, phone number and the profile picture. Thus, it will become a private space away from those who browse the profiles of others.
Moreover, these channels, like Telegram, allow their creators to connect with a multitude of subscribers in order to share news, events, etc. Yes for now it is not known if there will be a limit of subscribers, so we will have to wait for an upcoming beta or just the official company announcement; that it would surely be Mark Zuckerberg himself who announced it, already accustomed to these tasks.
