WhatsApp Beta Trial Lets You See Group Members That Left Group

JAKARTA - WhatsApp has become the most widely used messaging application for a long time. Over time, WhatsApp has rolled out many features to make the app better.

However, before the feature is released to the general public, Meta always tests beta testers first. This is to determine whether or not there are deficiencies in the features.

This time, WhatsApp rolled out a capability that allows users to view previous participants in a group viewable within group info.

According to a report from WAbetainfo, when you open the group info, the "see past participants" option will appear. From there, you'll be able to find users who have left or been removed from the group within the last 60 days.

During this trial, this feature is not only visible to group admins, but all group members can see it too.

This feature has been released to some beta testers starting Thursday, August 4. The report also says that there will be more activations to follow over the coming weeks.

Recently WhatsApp also announced that it is testing several new features, one of which is hiding online status.

How to hide online status works the same as setting "last seen" or last seen in the application.

The trick is, you just select the nobody option (nobody) in the choice of who can see when you last opened WhatsApp, then the user will not be online when opening the application.

WhatsApp also notes that if you choose no one can see your online and last seen status, then you can't see the status of other users either.
