WhatsApp seems to have released a new feature that should be welcomed by many who are part of groups on the messaging service. The feature shows you which member of your group is currently typing a message.

The functionality is the same as when you are chatting with individuals on WhatsApp. With the messaging service recently increasing the number of members you can add in a group from 50 to 100, it can sometimes get frustrating to keep a track of who all are typing. With this new feature, you will now know exactly when and which group member is typing.

While this is surely a welcome feature, not every feature WhatsApp recently introduced has gone down well with its over 600 million userbase.

This is a superb feature again. To know who's typing in a group is a great experience. So slowly Facebook is dictating terms to WhatsApp.
 
I have this updated version. Check the screen shot below.

@Sadiq, can you please check what happens when multiple people type simultaneously?

Will try bro ;) This itself I took by chance :tup
 
I checked. It shows the names alternatively.
 
Again a new feature was introduced by WhatsApp

Multiple Admin:

Now group admin can promote other member as admin and group can have more than 1admin

Process:- By going to the members list of the group.
Long press on the contact then you'll get options...
One option is to add members as group admin
You can only do this if you are the group admin of that group.
 
Informative update....Thx ilikered & sundaresh for sharing the new useful changes in whatsapp.
